TOMBSTONE EXPLORATION CORPORATION
On June 10, 2009, M&K CPAS, PLLC (“MKC”) was appointed as the registered independent public accountant for Tombstone Exploration Corporation (the “Registrant”), a Canadian corporation, for the year ended December 31, 2008. On June 10, 2009, Moore & Associates, Chartered (“Moore”), was dismissed as the registered independent public accountant for the Registrant. The decisions to appoint MKC and dismiss Moore were approved by the Board of Directors of the Registrant on June 9, 2007.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the subsequent interim period up through the date of dismissal (June 10, 2009), there were no disagreements with Moore on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Moore, would have caused Moore to make reference thereto in its report on the Registrants financial statements for such years. Further, there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B occurring within the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period up through the date of dismissal (June 10, 2009).
The audit report of Moore for the financial statements of the Registrant as of December 31, 2007, which audit report also includes the financial statements as of December 31, 2006, contained a separate paragraph stating:
“The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $16,029,547, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.”
During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period up through the date of engagement of MKC (June 10, 2007), neither the Registrant nor anyone on its behalf consulted MKC regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements. Further, MKC has not provided written or oral advice to the Registrant that was an important factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues.
The Registrant provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to Moore prior to the date of the filing of this report and requested that Moore furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements in this Report. A copy of the letter furnished in response to that request is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 6-K.
