1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS |
The unaudited financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008. The Company assumes that the readers of these interim financial statements herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June, 2009, the FASB issued Update No. 2009-01,The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM(“ASC”) as the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. This guidance is set forth in Topic 105 (“ASC 105”). Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods ending after September 15, 2009, which, for the Company, is the interim period ending November 30, 2009. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on its financial results. In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820), Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements,amending ASC 820. ASU 2010-06 requires entities to provide new disclosures and clarify existing disclosures relating to fair value measurements. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements 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. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-06, but does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13,Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangementsamending ASC 605. ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. ASU 2009-13 eliminates the residual method of revenue allocation and requires revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2009-13, but does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. F-12

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report constitute "forward-looking statements.” These statements, identified by words such as “plan,” "anticipate,” "believe,” "estimate,” "should,” "expect" and similar expressions include our expectations and objectives regarding our future financial position, operating results and business strategy. These statements reflect the current views of management with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include those set forth under the caption, "Part II - Item 1A. Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Forward looking statements are based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management made in light of its experience and perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable at the date the such statement are made. We intend to discuss in our Quarterly Reports and Annual Reports any events or circumstances that occurred during the period to which such documents relate that are reasonably likely to cause actual events or circumstances to differ materially from those disclosed in this Quarterly Report. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors and to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of such factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forwarding looking statement. We advise you to carefully review the reports and documents we file from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), particularly our periodic reports filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). OVERVIEW We were incorporated on November 20, 2006 pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada. We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. Currently, we hold a 100% interest in two mineral properties that we call the “Blue Jack Property” and the “Minnie

We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our properties, or if such deposits are discovered, that we will enter into further substantial exploration programs. Expenses Our expenses for the three and nine months ended May 31,
Our operating expenses increased from $33,396, during the three months ended May 31, 2009, During the nine months ended May 31, 2010, our operating expenses were $119,784 compared to $141,144 during the nine months ended May 31, 2009. The decrease is a result of decreases in mineral property exploration costs, professional fees and transfer agent and filing fees.
Management Fees consists of fees 6 Mineral property costs, during the nine months ended May 31, 2010, primarily consisted of option payments on the Frances Property and annual payments to maintain its properties in good standing. The additional mineral property costs during the nine month period ended May 31, 2009 primarily relate to our exploration program on the Minnie Claim and property payments to acquire the Blue Jack Property. If we are able to obtain sufficient financing to proceed with our plan of operation, of which there is no assurance, we expect that our expenses will increase significantly as we engage in mining and exploration activities. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of May 31,
Future Financings We currently do not have sufficient financial resources to implement Phase Ia of our exploration program on the Blue Jack Property. Therefore, we will need to obtain additional financing in order to implement our exploration program on the Blue Jack
We anticipate relying on equity sales of our common stock or loans in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuance of additional securities will result in dilution to shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned business activities. Currently, we do not have any arrangements for additional financing. Our plan of operation calls for us to spend significantly more than our current capital resources or the amount of financing that we have been able to obtain to date. As such, there is a substantial doubt that we will be able to raise significant financing to complete our stated plan of operation. Any substantial financing that we are able to obtain is expected to be in the form of equity financing. 7 OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results may differ from the estimates. Exploration Stage Enterprise Our financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of Mineral Property Interests We are an exploration stage mining company and have not yet realized any revenue from our operations. We are primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties. Exploration costs are expensed as incurred regardless of the stage of development or existence of reserves. Costs of acquisition are capitalized subject to impairment testing We regularly perform evaluations of any investment in mineral properties to assess the recoverability and/or the residual value of our investments in these assets. All long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances change which indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Our management periodically reviews the carrying value of our investments in mineral leases and claims with internal and external mining related professionals. A decision to abandon, reduce or expand a specific project is based upon many factors including general and specific assessments of mineral deposits, anticipated future mineral prices, anticipated future costs of exploring, developing and operating a production mine, the expiration term and ongoing expenses of maintaining mineral properties and the general likelihood that we will continue exploration on such project. We do not set a
pre-determined holding period for properties with unproven deposits; however, properties which have not demonstrated suitable metal concentrations at the conclusion of each phase of an exploration program are re-evaluated to determine if future exploration is warranted, whether there has been any impairment in value and that their carrying values are appropriate. If an area of interest is abandoned or it is determined that its carrying value cannot be supported by future production or sale, the related costs are charged against operations in the year of abandonment or determination of value. The amounts recorded as mineral leases and claims represent costs to date and do not necessarily reflect present or future values. Our exploration activities and proposed mine development are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws are continually changing, generally becoming more restrictive. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. None. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS. The following are some of the important factors that could affect our financial performance or could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates contained in our forward-looking statements. We may encounter risks in addition to those described below. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may also impair or adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operation. If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail. As at May 31, Because of the unique difficulties and uncertainties inherent in mineral exploration ventures, we face a high risk of business failure. Investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. Our mineral properties do not contain a known body of commercial ore and, therefore, any program conducted on our mineral properties would be an exploratory search of ore. There is no certainty that any expenditures made in the exploration of our mineral properties will result in discoveries of commercial quantities of ore. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts. If the results of our exploration program do not reveal viable commercial mineralization, we may decide to abandon our claim and acquire new claims for new exploration. The acquisition of additional claims will be dependent upon our possessing sufficient capital resources to purchase such claims. If we do not have sufficient capital resources and are unable to obtain sufficient financing, we may be forced to abandon our operations. We have no known mineral reserves and if we cannot find any, we may have to cease operations. We are in the initial phases of our exploration program for the Blue Jack
many risks and is often non-productive. Even if mineral reserves are discovered on our properties our production capabilities will be subject to further risks and uncertainties including: 10
The marketability of any minerals acquired or discovered may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond our control and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the lack of milling facilities and processing equipment near the Blue Jack Property, We face significant competition in the mineral exploration industry. We compete with other mining and exploration companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than we do. Due to our weaker competitive position, we may have greater difficulty in hiring and retaining qualified personnel to conduct our planned exploration activities, which could cause delays in our exploration programs. In addition, there is significant competition for a limited number of mineral properties. Due to our weaker financial position, we may be unable to acquire rights to new mineral properties on a continuing basis. Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our business. The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. At the present time we have no coverage to insure against these hazards. The payment of such liabilities may result in our inability to complete our planned exploration program and/or obtain additional financing to fund our exploration program. As we undertake exploration of our mineral properties, we will be subject to compliance with government regulations that may increase the anticipated cost of our exploration program. There are several governmental regulations that materially restrict mineral exploration. We are subject to the laws of the
At this stage of our development, the annual Because our executive officers and directors do not have formal training specific to the technicalities of mineral exploration, there is a higher risk that our business will fail. None of our executive officers and directors has any formal training as a geologist. With the exception of our director, Mr. Lindsay E. Gorrill, our executive officers and directors have only limited training in the technical aspects of managing a mineral exploration company. With very limited direct training or experience in these areas, our management may not be fully aware of the specific requirements related to working within this industry. Our management's decisions and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches mineral exploration companies commonly use. Consequently, our operations, earnings, and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable harm due to management's lack of experience in this industry. If we are unable to hire and retain key personnel, we may not be able to implement our business plan and our business will fail Our success will largely depend on our ability to hire highly qualified personnel with experience in geological exploration. These individuals may be in high demand and we may not be able to attract the staff we need. In addition, we may not be able to afford the high salaries and fees demanded by qualified personnel, or may lose such employees after they are hired. Currently, we have not hired any key personnel. Our failure to hire key personnel when needed could have a significant negative effect on our business. Because the prices of metals fluctuate, if the price of metals for which we are exploring decreases below a specified level, it may no longer be profitable to explore for those metals and we will cease operations. Metal prices are determined by such factors as expectations for inflation, the strength of the United States dollar, global and regional supply and demand, and political and economic conditions and production costs in metals producing regions of the world. The aggregate effect of these factors on metal prices is impossible for us to predict. In addition, the prices of metals such as lead, zinc, copper, silver, gold or uranium are sometimes subject to rapid short-term and/or prolonged changes because of speculative activities. The current demand for and supply of these metals affect the metal prices, but not necessarily in the same manner as current supply and demand affect the prices of other commodities. The supply of these metals primarily consists of new production from mining. If the prices of the metals are, for a substantial period, below our foreseeable cost of production, it may not be economical for us to continue operations and investors could lose their entire investment.
Because our President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director, Jarrett F. Bousquet, owns 55.2% of our outstanding common stock, investors may find that corporate decisions controlled by Mr. Bousquet are inconsistent with the interests of other stockholders. Jarrett F. Bousquet, our President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Director, controls 55.2% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Accordingly, in accordance with our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, Mr. Bousquet is able to control who is elected to our board of directors and thus could act, or could have the power to act, as our management. Since Mr. Bousquet is not simply a passive investor, but is also our principal executive officer, his interests as an executive officer may, at times, be adverse to those of passive investors. Where those conflicts exist, our shareholders will be dependent upon Mr. Bousquet exercising, in a manner fair to all of our shareholders, his fiduciary duties as an officer or as a member of our board of directors. Also, due to his stock ownership position, Mr. Bousquet will have: (i) the ability to control the outcome of most corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, including amendments to our Articles of Incorporation; (ii) the ability to control corporate combinations or similar transactions that might benefit minority stockholders which may be rejected by Mr. Bousquet to their detriment, and (iii) control over transactions between him and Yaterra. We will likely conduct further offerings of our equity securities in the future, in which case our stockholders’ interest may become diluted. Since our inception, we have relied on such sales of our common stock to fund our operations. We will likely be required to conduct additional equity offerings in the future to finance our current projects or to finance subsequent projects that we decide to undertake. If common stock is issued in return for additional funds, the price per share could be lower than that paid by our current stockholders. We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to fund our business operations. If we issue additional stock, stockholders' percentage interest in us could become diluted. The quotation price of our common stock may be volatile, with the result that an investor may not be able to sell any shares acquired at a price equal to or greater than the price paid by the investor. Our common shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "YTRV.” Companies quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board have traditionally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. In addition, our stock price may be adversely affected by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. Market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result of this potential volatility and potential lack of a trading market, an investor may not be able to sell any of our common stock that they acquire that a price equal or greater than the price paid by the investor. Because our stock is a penny stock, shareholders will be more limited in their ability to sell their stock. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. Because our securities constitute “penny stocks” within the meaning of the rules, the rules apply to us and to our securities. The rules may further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any market that might develop for them. As long as the trading price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share, the common stock will be subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock. ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. None.
