	1. Basis of Presentation and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
	The Company has had no revenues from operations since inception and as at December 31, 2013 had a deficit of $65,975,612 (2012 - $67,953,626 ; 2011 - $66,682,638) accumulated during the exploration and development stage. Management plans to control current costs and anticipates the additional $10 million loan subsequent to year end ( Note 14 – Subsequent Events) , will help fund the Company’s development and administrative activities over the next several months. The Company will require additional funding to continue the project development through the 2014 fiscal year.
	The Company is evaluating various financing options for further developing its core mineral asset, the Soledad Mountain Project (the “Project”), including debt, equity and other alternatives. A production decision will be made once the full project financing has been secured.
	The ability of the Company to obtain financing for its ongoing activities and thus maintain solvency, or to fund construction of the Project, is dependent on equity market conditions, the market for precious metals, the willingness of other parties to lend the Company money or the ability to find a merger partner. While the Company has been successful at certain of these efforts in the past, there can be no assurance that future efforts will be successful. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
	These consolidated 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.

	During the year, the Company demolished the old buildings the Company had as part of the development of the mine site. The buildings had a net book value of $2,522 at the time of the demolition. During the year, the Company decided to separate out the land from the rental properties and buildings which resulted in a 2012 reclassification of cost of $84,370 from buildings and $25,230 from rental properties to land of $109,600. In addition, the Company removed all old, fully depreciated assets from its books. The assets removed were furniture and fixtures with a cost and accumulated amortization of $56,090 (2012- $56,090), and a vehicle with a cost and accumulated amortization of $21,401 (2012- $21,401).

	The Company’s deferred tax assets include approximately $5,000 (2012 - $5,000 ; 2011 - $8,000) related to deductions for share issue costs in excess of amounts deducted for financial reporting purposes. If and when the valuation allowance related to these amounts is reversed, the Company will recognize this benefit as an adjustment to share capital as opposed to income tax expense in the consolidated statements of loss.
	The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and this causes a change in management’s judgment about the recoverability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is reflected in current income. As management of the Company does not currently believe that it is more likely than not that the Company will receive the benefit of this asset, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax assets has been established at both December 31, 2013 and 2012.
	As at December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards available to reduce taxable income in future years as follows:
	Country	Amount	Expiration Dates
	United States – Federal	$17,930,000	2018 - 2033
	Canada (C$)	$8,016,000	2014 - 2033
	These consolidated financial statements do not reflect the potential effect on future income taxes of the application of these losses.
	The FASB’s guidance for “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company has evaluated its tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and determined that it has no uncertain tax positions requiring financial statement recognition.

	Stock options
	The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options granted. In accordance with the accounting standard for employees, the compensation expense is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which approximates the vesting period. Compensation expense for stock options granted to non-employees is amortized over the contract services period or, if none exists, from the date of grant until the options vest. Compensation associated with unvested options granted to non-employees is remeasured on each balance sheet date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
	On December 23, 2013, the Board of the Company passed a resolution to convert the exercise prices of granted stock options to US dollars, being the functional currency of the Company. Prior to this, the Company was recognizing a derivative liability on the balance sheet for these options since they were not denominated in the functional currency. Refer to Note 10 – Derivative liability for further details.

The remaining 600,000 stock options were issued to two employees of which 100,000 vested immediately. The remaining 500,000 stock options had vesting conditions as follows:
	300,000 options - 100,000 vesting every 6 months from grant date for a total vesting period of 18 months using the straight line method; and

	Property rent payments (Advance minimum royalties)
	The Company has acquired a number of mineral properties outright. It has acquired exclusive rights to explore, develop and mine other portions of the Project under various mining lease agreements with landowners.
	The Company is required to make property rent payments related to its mining lease agreements with landholders, in the form of advance minimum royalties. The total property rent payments for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $161,190 (2012 - $204,792 ; 2011 - $245,970), and the Company is expected to make approximate payments of $153,000 in 2014 to various landowners under the existing lease agreements. The payments are at the discretion of the Company and will cease if and when the Company goes into production and then begins paying royalty payments on production yields.
	There are multiple third party landholders and the royalty amount due to each landholder over the life of the Project varies with each property. Please refer to Note 3 for complete details.
	Finder’s fee
	The Company has agreed to issue 100,000 common shares as a finder’s fee in connection with certain property acquisitions upon commencement of commercial production of the Project. As of December 31, 2013, commercial production has not commenced and no shares have been issued.
	Management agreement
	In 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with the President of the Company to issue 300,000 bonus shares upon completion of certain milestones. Upon receipt by the Company of a bankable feasibility study and the decision to place the Property into commercial production, a bonus of 150,000 common shares would be issued. Upon commencement of commercial production on the Property, a further bonus of 150,000 common shares would be issued. In May 2010, the Company entered into an amendment to the agreement whereby the 300,000 bonus shares would alternatively be issuable upon a change of control transaction, or upon a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, having a value at or above C$1.00 per share of the Company, with a further 300,000 bonus shares being issuable in the event the change of control transaction or asset sale occurred at a value at or above C$1.50 per share. This amended agreement is for a term of three years and shall automatically renew for two years. As at December 31, 2013, none of the milestones had been reached and no commitment to issue the common shares has been recorded in connection with these arrangements.
	During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company entered into employment agreements with a new Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and a Chief Operating Officer (“COO’). Included in the agreement with the CFO is a provision that if the CFO’s position is lost upon a change of control or within six months of a change of control the CFO would be entitled to a one-time payment equal to twice the annual salary, C$300,000 total, plus twice the annual bonus. The annual bonus is determined by the Board subsequent to a review of the CFO’s performance. Included in the agreement with the COO is a provision that if the COO’s position is lost upon a change of control or within six months of a change of control the COO would be entitled to a onetime payment equal to 100% of the annual base salary of $150,000.
	Compliance with Environmental Regulations
	The Company’s exploration and development activities are subject to laws and regulations controlling not only the exploration and mining of mineral properties, but also the effect of such activities on the environment. Compliance with such laws and regulations may necessitate additional capital outlays or affect the economics of a project, and cause changes or delays in the Company’s activities.

	8. Related Party Transactions
	Except as noted elsewhere in these consolidated financial statements, related party transactions are disclosed as follows:
	Consulting Fees
	For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company paid $192,431 (2012 - $138,885 ; 2011 - $137,748) to Mr. H. L. Klingmann for services as President of the Company of which $47,967 is payable as at December 31, 2013 of which $32,907 is related to the 2013 year-end bonus; paid $17,622 (2012 - $26,977 ; 2011 - $27,295) to Mr. Chester Shynkaryk for his consulting services to the Company, paid $21,987 (2012 - $29,930 ; 2011 - $20,218), to Mr. Ross McDonald for his services as the former CFO of the Company; paid $11,759 (2012 - $Nil ; 2011 - $Nil) to a company controlled by one of the directors for consulting services during the year.
	During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company paid a total of $35,484 (2012 - $10,068 ; 2011 – $10,088) to its five directors, of which $15,772 (2012 - $Nil ; 2011 - $Nil) is payable as at December 31, 2013.
	Convertible Debentures
	On July 26, 2013, the Company entered into agreements to issue convertible debentures for aggregate proceeds of C$10,000,000 ($9,710,603). The convertible debentures are unsecured and bear interest at 2% per annum, calculated on the outstanding principal balance, payable annually. The principal amounts of the notes are convertible into shares of the Company at a price of C$1.03 per share for a period of two years. If the notes have not been converted by the holder prior to the maturity date, then the Company may convert them at the lower of C$1.03 or the market price as at the maturity date. The market price on the maturity date will be determined based on the volume- weighted average price of the shares traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the five trading days preceding the maturity date. A total of C$7,500,000 of the offering was subscribed for by an investment vehicle managed by Thomas M. Clay, a Director and insider of the Company. The Company agreed to pay the legal fees incurred by the lenders relating to this instrument which amounted to $10,049.
	The conversion feature of the convertible debentures meets the definition of a derivative liability instrument because the conversion feature is denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency as well as the fact the exercise price is not a fixed price as described above. Therefore, the conversion feature does not meet the “fixed-for-fixed” criteria outlined in ASC 815-40-15. As a result, the conversion feature of the notes is required to be recorded as a derivative liability recorded at fair value and marked-to-market each period with the changes in fair value each period being charged or credited to income or loss.
	On inception of the debentures, the fair value of the derivative liability related to the conversion feature was $5,741,520 and as at December 31, 2013, was $2,833,987. The derivative liability was calculated using an acceptable option pricing valuation model with the following assumptions:
	Risk-free interest rate	1.13% - 1.15%
	Expected life of derivative liability	1.57 - 2 years
	Expected volatility	73.43% - 89.52%
	Dividend rate	0.00%
	The changes in the derivative liability related to the conversion feature are as follows:
			December 31,
			2013
	Balance, beginning of the year	$	-
	Fair value at inception		5,741,520
	Change in fair value of derivative liability including foreign exchange		(2,907,533	)
	Balance, end of the year	$	2,833,987
	With the conversion feature initially being valued at $5,741,520, the resulting residual value allocated to the host debentures was $3,975,480, being the difference between the face value of the convertible debentures and the fair value of the conversion feature derivative liability.
	The change in the convertible debentures is as follows:
			31-Dec-13
	Balance, beginning of the year	$	-
	Discounted convertible debentures		3,975,480
	Amortization of discount		811,327
	Foreign exchange		(144,187	)
	Balance, end of the year	$	4,642,620
	In addition to the amortization of the discount on the convertible debenture, the Company incurred interest expense of $76,699 based on the 2% per annum stated interest rate for a total interest expense of $888,026.

	10. Derivative Liability – Options and Warrants
	As at January 1, 2009, the date on which the guidance of ASC 815-40-15 became effective for the Company, the Company’s stock options and warrants met the criteria of a derivative instrument liability because they were exercisable in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company and thus did not meet the “fixed-for-fixed” criteria of that guidance. As a result, the Company was required to separately account for the stock options and warrants as derivative instrument liabilities recorded at fair value and marked-to-market each period with the changes in the fair value each period charged or credited to income.
	During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company issued a total of 200,000 stock options that were treated as a derivative liability and in total 1,220,000 stock options were exercised during the year. Upon exercise of the options, the portion of the derivative liability that pertained to these options was re-measured and recorded at its fair value of $910,054, subsequent to which it was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. The Company measured the fair value of the derivative liability pertaining to the options exercised using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following range of assumptions: expected volatility – 82.54% - 105.67%, expected life – 0.39 – 0.78 years, risk-free discount rate – 0.97% - 1.32%, dividend yield – 0.00% .
	On December 23, 2013, the Board of the Company passed a resolution to convert the exercise prices of granted stock options to US dollars, being the functional currency of the Company. As a result of this change, the derivative liability no longer exists. In accordance with Accounting Standard 815 - 40 - 35, the Company marked the derivative liability to market and recorded the change in fair value of the derivative liability in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The resulting balance was reclassified to additional paid-up capital. In accordance with the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) guidance, the reclassification was completed at the exchange rates at the grant date of the stock options. The difference between the current foreign exchange rate and the grant date exchange rate was included in the change in fair value of the derivative liability in the profit and loss statement. The total amount reclassified to equity was $338,016.
	During the year ended December 31, 2012, no stock options that were treated as derivative liabilities were exercised.
	During the year ended December 31, 2011, a total of 1,250,000 stock options treated as derivative liabilities were exercised. Upon exercise of these options, the portion of the derivative liability that pertained to these options was remeasured and recorded at its fair value of $2,993,685, subsequent to which it was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. The Company measured the fair value of the derivative liability pertaining to the options exercised using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following range of assumptions: expected volatility – 43.70% - 78.82%, expected life – 0.01 – 2.47 years, risk-free discount rate – 1.04% - 1.88%, dividend yield – 0.00% .
	As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had re-measured the remaining outstanding options and determined the fair value of the derivative liability to be $Nil and $3,522,071, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
		2013	2012
	Risk-free interest rate	-	1.14%
	Expected life of derivative liability	-	1.08 to 2.30 years
	Expected volatility	-	57.15% - 63.01%
	Dividend rate	-	0.00%
	During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, no warrants treated as derivative liabilities were exercised.
	During the year ended December 31, 2011, a total of 2,500,000 warrants treated as derivative liabilities were exercised. Upon exercise of these warrants the portion of the derivative liability that pertained to these warrants was re-measured and recorded at its fair value of $1,629,668, subsequent to which it was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. The Company measured the fair value of the derivative liability that pertained to the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following range of assumptions: expected volatility – 167.710%, expected life – 0.003 years, risk-free discount rate – 1.01%, dividend yield – 0.00% .
	The changes of derivative liability for options and warrants are as follows:

	11. Financial Instruments
	Fair Value Measurements
	All financial assets and financial liabilities are recorded at fair value on initial recognition. Transaction costs are expensed when they are incurred, unless they are directly attributable to the acquisition of qualifying assets, in which case they are added to the costs of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
	The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
	Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
	Level 2	Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
	Level 3	Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). See Notes 8 and 10 – Convertible Debentures and Derivative Liability- Options and Warrants for derivatives fair valued on a recurring basis.
	Under fair value accounting, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had embedded derivative liabilities in connection with the Convertible Debenture (Note 8 ) and Options and Warrants prior to modification of the exercise price currency (Note 10).
	Credit Risk
	Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the Company by failing to discharge its obligations. To mitigate exposure to credit risk on financial assets the Company has established policies to ensure liquidity of funds and ensure counterparties demonstrate minimum acceptable credit worthiness.
	The Company maintains its US Dollar and Canadian Dollar cash in bank accounts with major financial institutions with high credit standings. Cash deposits held in the United States are insured by the FDIC for up to $250,000 and Canadian Dollar cash deposits held in Canada are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”) for up to C$100,000. Certain United States and Canadian bank accounts held by the Company exceed these federally insured limits or are uninsured as they related to US Dollar deposits held in Canadian financial institutions. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s cash balances held in United States and Canadian financial institutions include $5,030,522 and $4,031,403 respectively, which are not fully insured by the FDIC or CDIC. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts and management believes that using major financial institutions with high credit ratings mitigates the credit risk in cash.
	Interest Rate Risk
	The Company holds all of the Company’s cash in bank deposit accounts with major financial institutions. The interest rates received on these balances may fluctuate with changes in economic conditions. Based on the average cash balances during the year ended December 31, 2013, a 1% decrease would have resulted in a reduction in interest income to $Nil.
	The Company holds 99% of its cash in bank deposit accounts with a single major financial institution. The interest rates received on these balances may fluctuate with changes in economic conditions. Based on the average cash balances during the year ended December 31, 2013, a 1% decrease in interest rates would have reduced the interest income for 2013 to a trivial amount.
	Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
	Certain purchases of labour are denominated in Canadian Dollar. As a result, currency exchange fluctuations may impact the costs of our operations. Specifically, the appreciation of the Canadian Dollar against the US Dollar may result in an increase in the Canadian operating expenses in US dollar terms. As of December 31, 2013, the Company maintained the majority of its cash balance in US Dollar. The Company currently does not engage in any currency hedging activities.
	Commodity Price Risk
	The Company’s primary business activity is the development of the open pit, gold and silver, heap leach project on the Property. Decreases in the price of either of these metals from current levels has the potential to negatively impact the Company’s ability to secure significant additional financing required to develop the Project into an operating mine. We do not currently engage in hedging transactions and we have no hedged mineral resources.

		i)	On January 6, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to secure a $10,000,000 loan (the “Loan”). The Loan is provided by members of the Clay family including $7,500,000 to be provided by an investment vehicle managed by Thomas M. Clay, a Director and insider of the Company. The Loan has a twelve-month term and bears an annual interest rate of 5%, payable on the maturity date. If the Loan is repaid on a date that is less than 183 days before the maturity date, the Company will pay the Lenders an amount of 105% of the principal amount plus interest on the principal amount at the rate of 5% per annum accrued to the date the Loan is repaid. The Company agreed to pay the legal fees incurred by the lenders relating to this instrument.
		ii)	On January 31, 2014, the Center for Biological Diversity (the "Center") filed an emergency petition (the "Petition") with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service ("USFWS") asking the USFWS to list the Mojave Shoulderband snail as a threatened or endangered species. Citing a report published more than 80 years ago, the Petition claims that the snail exists in only three places, and that most of the snail habitat occurs on Soledad Mountain, where the Company is developing its fully-permitted mining operation, known locally as the Soledad Mountain Project. The Company is currently working with its environmental and legal advisors to prepare a detailed and complete response to the Petition and expects to submit this response to the USFWS in March 2014. At this time, the impact of this matter on the Company’s financial position and future plans is unknown.
		iii)	In February of 2014, 60,000 stock options were exercised and the Company issued 60,000 common shares at $0.21 per share for proceeds of $12,600.
		iv)	The Company issued 15,300 shares in February of 2014 to a claim holder to extend a royalty agreement and eliminate future advance minimum royalties payable to this claim holder.
