Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 2.01.
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On April 2, 2006, the Registrant acquired American Unity Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation (AUI”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated March 31, 2006. The Agreement and the board resolutions effecting the same were in escrow until April 2, 2006 and were of no force and effect until April 2, 2006. In connection with the acquisition, the 1,569 shareholders of AUI received 50,000,000 (post split) shares of Registrant common stock. In connection with the acquisition, the Registrant will effect a 1-for-1000 reverse stock split of the common stock on April 17, 2006, resulting in approximately 71,239 pre-merger shares outstanding. The Registrant shall also issue 22,463,768 shares on April 17, 2006 upon conversion of the remaining $43,700 of outstanding convertible debentures. As a result, as of April 20, 2006 there will be 72,535,007 shares of common stock outstanding (50,000,000 +71,239+22,463,768 shares). The new symbol for the common stock will be AMMN.OB as of April 17, 2006.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The Registrant issued 50,000,000 shares of its common stock as of April 2, 2006 to 1,569 Chinese persons, who were the shareholders of AUI. The exemption relied upon was Regulation S, since the shareholders of AUI are all non-U.S. Persons and the offer was made outside the United States. AUI investors are citizens of the People’s Republic of China.
In addition, the Registrant shall also issue 22,463,768 shares on or after April 20, 2006 upon conversion of the remaining $43,700 of the Registrant’s outstanding 1.5% convertible debentures which were originally issued on March 3, 2005 and assumed by the Registrant on March 17, 2005, Inc. on completion of a merger. The exemptions relied upon for the original issuance of the debentures was Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as a non public offering, and also Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act which section exempts exchanges of securities with between an issuer and its securityholders. The convertible debenture was issued by Chiriquitos Mining under Rule 504. A Notice of Sale on Form D was filed by Chiriquitos Mining, Inc. The 22,463,768 shares will be issued to the 7 holders of the convertible debenture in reliance upon Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act which section ex empts exchanges of securities with between an issuer and its security holders. In both the assumption of the convertible debentures and their conversion, no person solicited the exchange of securities for compensation, and the exchanging security holders did not receive any property other than securities of the Registrant.
Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant
A change of control took place on April 2, 2006 as a result of the acquisition of AUI described above. Control was assumed from Daniel Enright. The names of the current directors and executive officers of the Registrant and holders of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock and the number of shares held and the percentage of the total issued and outstanding Common Stock (the only voting security) of the Registrant owned by each of them are as follows. The address of each is Room 501, Tower E1, Oriental Plaza, No. 1, East Chang An Avenue, Beijing, China.

When used in this Form 8-K, the words "expects," "anticipates," "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those set forth below under "Risks and Uncertainties," that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. Amerimine expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company's expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based. This discussion should be read together with the financial statements and other financial information included in this Form 8-K.
General
Amerimine Resources, Inc. (formerly Capital Hill Gold, Inc and Autec Associates, Inc.) was formed on June 30, 1988 as a corporation under the laws of the State of Florida (the “Company”). The Company’s shares trade on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol AMRR. From inception in 1988 to early 2004, the Company was engaged in the design, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and repair of stone-set jewelry using diamonds
and other precious gemstones, such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds. The Company also manufactured and designed numerous modern styles of stone-set jewelry, including necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets, and other ornaments. The Company managed a retail outlet for the sale of its jewelry products to the public in Stuart, Florida. The Company intended to broaden its customer base by selling its jewelry products within the United State and Canada. Customers for the jewelry products are primarily consumers. The Company’s market concentration was in southeastern United States, which was primarily due to long-term existing relationships with certain clients.
On January 12, 2004, the Company entered into the mineral exploration business and executed an option agreement (the “Option”) with Capital Hill Resources Ltd. Under this agreement the Company might acquire 42 mineral unpatented claims (claim name Victor 1- 42 inclusive) and the NE & NW half of Section 9, and the surface rights with an option to purchase surface rights (453 acres) on Section 4 located in Cochise County Arizona. In March 2005 the Company acquired Chiriquitos Mining, Inc., which held an option on certain mineral (gold) properties in Mexico. Additional mineral properties (gold, silver and uranium) were optioned in 2005 in Colorado. Due to lack of funding to develop the properties, the options lapsed without completion of payment for the option prices, and the Company abandoned its mineral business. In September 2005 the Company entered into discussion s with a group for a joint venture on a Nigerian petroleum project. This venture was not successful and Amerimine became a “shell” company and began to seek for another business.
On April 2, 2006, the Amerimine acquired American Unity Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation (AUI”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated March 31, 2006. In connection with the acquisition, shareholders of AUI received 50,000,000 (post split) shares of Company common stock. In connection with the acquisition, the Company intends to effect a 1-for-1000 reverse stock split of the common stock effective on or about April 20, 2006, resulting in approximately 71,239 pre-merger shares outstanding. The Company shall also issue 22,463,768 shares on or about April 20, 2006 upon conversion of the remaining $43,700 of outstanding convertible debentures. As a result, upon consummation of the transactions related to the acquisition there will be 72,535,007 shares of common stock outstanding (50,000,000 +71,239+22,463,768 shares).
CURRENT OPERATIONS
American Unity was organized on December 2, 2004 to engage in the forestry business in the People’s Republic of China. On January 8, 2006, American Unity entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement to acquire 100% of Beijing DongZhaoXu Forestry Development Co., Ltd. (“Beijing DongZhaoXu”) for $246,700 (Rmb 2,000,000) being the total registered and fully paid up capital of Beijing DongZhaoXu. Beijing DongZhaoXu is owned as to 80% by a stockholder of AUi and is engaged in the leasing of forestry land in China. The transaction will be treated as an acquisition of business under common control. The completion of the acquisition of Beijing DongZhaoXu is subject to governmental approval of the People’s Republic of China. As of April 14, 2006, the acquisition has not been completed.
Amerimine, through its subsidiary AUI, intends to enter the forestry business in China, with emphasis on plantation forestry. The Company will acquire parcels of land, either in its own name or in joint venture with investors, and plant trees on the parcel for future harvest. Because land ownership in fee simple is not permitted under Chinese law, acquisition will be in the form of a long term land lease. Amerimine has not identified specific parcels it will acquire at this time. We expect to identify parcels to acquire in the next three to four months.

Chinese Forestry Industry.
“Forest cover has grown from 8.6% of the land base in 1949 to over 17.5% in 2000. Mature stands are decreasing, however, while the share of plantation and commercial forests continues to rise in response to government policies. Most of the forests are in remote regions, however, and lack of transportation limits exploitation. China has three major forest areas: the northeast (Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Inner Mongolia); the southwest (Sichuan and Yunnan); and the southeast (Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangxi, and Hainan). Fujian, Zhejiang, Anhui, and Guangdong together account for about 30% of the total value of the forestry sector. Coniferous stands, which yield the most valuable commercial timber, are found mainly in the northeast and adjoining parts of Inner Mongolia. Deciduous trees are felled in Sichuan and Yunnan. Between 1990 and 1995, however, the northeast's share of productio n fell to from 38% to 30%, as production shifted from state-owned forests in the north to plantation forests in the south. While China is a major producer of softwood logs and lumber, virtually all of its production is domestically consumed. Paper production, which has benefited from the substitution of rice-straw and other nonwood materials for wood pulp, nearly tripled during the 1980s. Special forestry products originating in southwestern China include tung oil, cassia oil, and aniseed oil. Wood imports can vary widely from year to year. China is the largest timber importer in the world— imports of timber and related products reached $9.87 billion in 2001, with $3.47 billion in timber products and $6.38 billion in pulp and paper. Production amounts for 2000 (in 1,000 cu m) were roundwood, 287,472; sawnwood, 7,702, wood-based panels, 18,647; wood pulp, 3,700; and paper and paperboard, 35,529.”
“Deforestation has been a persistent and serious problem in China, leading to massive erosion and desertification. The government has, from the start of its first five-year plan in 1953, given high priority to campaigns for afforestation. By 1980, 26 million ha (64 million acres) of new forests had been planted, and during the 1980s, afforestation proceeded at the rate of
4.55 million ha (11.24 million acres) per year. However, cutting of trees for fuel continued in rural areas, and many of the trees planted as part of afforestation efforts were lost because of neglect after planting. In its ninth five-year plan commencing in January 1996, the Ministry of Forestry had the following goals: operating 10 major forest conservation projects by 2000; increasing the variety of wood species in state-owned forest plantations; developing the paper making industry; exploring and developing growing trees in marginal land (such as hilly, mountainous, or sandy terrain); and classifying forests as either industrial (for environmental protection) or economic (for commercial production). During 1990–2000, the forested area grew by an annual average of 1.2%.” (Source: People’s Daily Online, 2003, http://english.people.com.cn/200409/2 1/eng20040921_157738.html)
According to a March 2006 report of Forestry Trends, from 1997 to 2005 the value of forest product imports has risen from $6.4 billion to $16.4 billion, and the volume of imports has tripled. The reason for the import growth is not only the increase in China’s manufacturing for export, but also growing domestic demand. About 70% (in volume) of wood imports are then re-exported. From 1997 to 2005 the value of forestry exports grew from $3.6 billion to $17.2 billion. China has moved from utilization of rice and other agricultural waste for paper production into wood pulp based production. China is now the second largest producer of paper products (including packaging materials) in the world after the United States.
The Company believes that these trends will continue and Chinese demand for forestry products will continue.
Employees
The Company has 4 employees other than its officers.
Property
The Company has the use of a sufficient amount of office space in Room 501, Tower E1, Oriental Plaza, No. 1, East Chang An Avenue, Beijing, China for rent at $ 2,000 per month. Such space is deemed to be sufficient for the foreseeable future.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of:
American Unity Investments, Inc.
(a development stage company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Unity Investments, Inc. (a development stage company), as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows forthe year ended December 31, 2005 and for the period from December 2, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2004 and for the period from December 2, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits of the financial statements provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Unity Investments, Inc. (a development stage company), as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005 and for the period from December 2, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2004 and for the period from December 2, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 6 to the financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $364,248, an accumulated deficit of $366,348 and a working capital deficiency of $300,463 and used cash in operations of $387,294. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning this matter are also described in Note 6. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
(A) Organization
American Unity Investments, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 2, 2004 and has elected a fiscal year end of December 31. The Company intends to raise capital to fund its acquisition of suitable forestry businesses in the People’s Republic of China.
The Company is considered a development stage company and has not engaged in business activities of any kind since its incorporation. The Company has not recorded any revenue.
(B)
Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(C)
Cash and cash equivalents
For purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits with a bank with a maturity of less than three months.
(D)
Long-lived assets
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the impairment or disposal of Long-Lived Assets", long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long- lived assets. The Company reviews long-lived assets to determine that carrying values are not impaired.
(E)
Fair value of financial instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are reflected in the financial statements at fair value because of the short-term maturity of the instruments.
(F)
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement 109”). Under Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
(G)
Foreign currency translation
The functional currency of the Company is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). Transactions denominated in currencies other than RMB are translated into United States dollars using year end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange translations are included in the statements of operations and stockholder’s equity as other comprehensive income (loss). Cumulative translation adjustment amounts were insignificant at and for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 as the RMB is pegged to the United States dollar.
(H)
Income (loss) per share
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted (loss) income per share is computed similar to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There are no potentially dilutive securities for 2005 and 2004.
(I)
Segments
The Company operates in only one segment, thereafter segment disclosure is not presented.
(J)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), a revision to SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), and superseding APB Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, including obtaining employee services in share-based payment transactions.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” (SFAS 155”), which amends SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 133”) and SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities” (SFAS 140”). SFAS 155 amends SFAS 133 to narrow the scope exception for interest-only and principal-only strips on debt instruments to include only such strips representing rights to receive a specified portion of the contractual interest or principle cash flows. SFAS 155 also amends SFAS 140 to allow qualifying special-purpose entities to hold a passive derivative financial instrument pertaining to beneficial interests that itself is a derivative instruments. The Company is currently e valuating the impact this new Standard, but believes that will not have that it will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.

These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and succeed in its future operations.
