- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION [Abstract] | |
- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Pacific Gold Corp. (“Pacific Gold” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in Nevada on December 31, 1996 under the name of Demand Financial International, Ltd. On October 3, 2002, Demand Financial International, Ltd. changed its name to Blue Fish Entertainment, Inc. On August 5, 2003, the name was changed to Pacific Gold Corp. Pacific Gold is engaged in the identification, acquisition, and development of prospects believed to have gold, vanadium, uranium, and tungsten mineral deposits. Pacific Gold currently owns mining claims and royalties on mining property in Nevada and Colorado. Basis of Presentation These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company's fiscal year-end is December 31. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and footnotes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, which were filed with the Company's annual report Form 10-K on January 28, 2016. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or for any other interim period. Principle of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Pacific Gold Corp., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Nevada Rae Gold, Inc., and Fernley Gold, Inc. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Reclassification of Accounts Certain accounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Significant Accounting Principles Use of Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales, expenses and costs recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of consolidated financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, cash includes cash on hand and cash in the bank. Revenue Recognition Pacific Gold recognizes revenue from the sale of minerals when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured, which is determined when it places a sale order of gold from its inventory on hand with the refinery. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are valued at cost. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 2 to 10 years. Mineral Rights All mine-related costs, other than acquisition costs, are expensed prior to the establishment of proven or probable reserves. Reserves designated as proven and probable are supported by a final feasibility study, indicating that the reserves have had the requisite geologic, technical and economic work performed and are legally extractable at the time of reserve determination. Once proven or probable reserves are established, all development and other site-specific costs are capitalized. Capitalized development costs and production facilities are depleted using the units-of-production method based on the estimated gold which can be recovered from the ore reserves processed. There has been no change to the estimate of proven and probable reserves. Lease development costs for non-producing properties are amortized over their remaining lease term if limited. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. As per Industry Guide 7, there are no proven or probable reserves. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. Pacific Gold assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the undiscounted future net cash flows, which depend on estimates of metals to be recovered from proven and probable ore reserves, and also identified resources beyond proven and probable reserves, future production costs and future metals prices over the estimated remaining mine life. If undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recognized based upon the estimated expected future net cash flows from the property discounted at an interest rate commensurate with the risk involved. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value. The fair value of an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The present value of the estimated asset retirement costs is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. For Pacific Gold, asset retirement obligations primarily relate to the abandonment of ore-producing property and facilities. The Company reviews the carrying value of its interest in each group of mineral claims owned by its subsidiaries on an annual basis to determine whether impairment has incurred in the claim value. The Company evaluates the mineral claim values based on one of four criteria; cash flow projection, geological reports, asset sale and option agreements, and comparative market analysis including public market value. Where information and conditions suggest impairment, the Company writes-down these properties to the lowest estimated value based on its evaluation criteria. The estimate of gold price, mineralized materials, operating capital, and reclamation costs are subject to risks and uncertainties affecting the recoverability of investment in property, plant, and equipment. Although the Company has made its best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible that changes could occur in the near term that could adversely affect the estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from operating properties and the need for possible asset impairment write-downs. Where estimates of future net operating cash flows are not available and where other conditions suggest impairment, the Company assesses if carrying value can be recovered from net cash flows generated by the sale of the asset or other means. Income Taxes In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Income Taxes, Pacific Gold recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Loss per Share The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015 potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had 12,632,500,000 and 25,388,473,000 , respectively, of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Advertising The Company's policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred $51 and $461, respectively, in advertising costs. Environmental Remediation Liability The Company has posted a bond with the State of Nevada in the amount required by the State of Nevada equal to the maximum cost to reclaim land disturbed in its mining process. The bond requires a quarterly premium to be paid to the State of Nevada Division of Minerals. The Company is current on all payments. Due to its investment in the bond and the close monitoring of the State of Nevada, the Company believes that it has adequately mitigated any liability that could be incurred by the Company to reclaim lands disturbed in its mining process. Financial Instruments The Company's financial instruments, when valued using market interest rates, would not be materially different from the amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements. Convertible Debentures Convertible debt is accounted for under ASC 470-20, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options . The Company records a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) related to the issuance of convertible debt that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates that are in-the-money when issued and records the fair value of warrants issued with those instruments. The BCF for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds to warrants and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features, both of which are credited to paid-in-capital. The Company calculates the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible instruments using the Black-Scholes valuation method, using the same assumptions used for valuing employee options for purposes of following ASC Topic 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation , except that the contractual life of the warrant is used. Under these guidelines, the Company allocates the value of the proceeds received from a convertible debt transaction between the conversion feature and any other detachable instruments (such as warrants) on a relative fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded as a debt discount or premium and is amortized over the expected term of the convertible debt to interest expense. For a conversion price change of a convertible debt issue, the additional intrinsic value of the debt conversion feature, calculated as the number of additional shares issuable due to a conversion price change multiplied by the previous conversion price, is recorded as additional debt discount and amortized over the remaining life of the debt. The Company accounts for modifications of its Embedded Conversion Features in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments, which requires the modification of a convertible debt instrument that changes the fair value of an embedded conversion feature and the subsequent recognition of interest expense or the associated debt instrument when the modification does not result in a debt extinguishment pursuant to ASC 470-50-40 , Debt - Modification and Extinguishments - Derecognition . Derivative Liability Related to Convertible Notes The derivative liability related to convertible notes and warrants arises because the conversion price of the Company's convertible notes is discounted from the market price of the Company's common stock. Thus, the number of shares that may be issued upon conversion of such notes is indeterminate, which gives rise to the possibility that the Company may not be able to fully settle its convertible note and warrant obligations by the issuance of common stock. The derivative liability related to convertible notes and warrants is adjusted to fair value as of each date that a note is converted or a warrant is exercised, as well as at each reporting date, using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Any change in fair value between reporting dates that arises because of changes in market conditions is recognized as a gain or loss. To the extent the derivative liability is reduced as a consequence of the conversion of notes or the exercise of warrants, such reduction is recognized as additional paid-in capital as of the conversion or exercise date. Stock Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation which requires that the fair value compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized over the employee's requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of the Company's stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2015 or 2014. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow. |

- OPERATING LEASES [Abstract] | |
- OPERATING LEASES | NOTE 8 - OPERATING LEASES The Company has leased approximately 440 acres of privately owned land adjacent to its staked prospects from Corporate Creditors Committee LLC, by lease dated October 1, 2003. The Company paid an advance royalty of $7,500 for the first year, which amount is increased by $2,500 in each of the next five years to be $20,000 in the sixth year. For the last four years of the lease, the advance royalty is $20,000 per year. The lease was renewed in 2012, and the new annual advance royalty is $20,000. The advance royalty is credited to and recoverable from the production rental amounts. The royalty is the greater of a 4% net smelter royalty or $0.50 per yard of material processed. The lease is for 10 years. In 2011, Nevada Rae Gold (“NRG”) entered into a lease agreement to lease a 100% interest in 45 mining claims covering approximately 2,000 acres in Lander County, Nevada. The lease calls for NRG to pay the claim owners a gross royalty of 4% on gold sales or $0.50 per yard of gravels mined, whichever is greater. NRG will be required to make annual minimum advance royalty payments of $20,000. The term of the lease is for 10 years with an option for NRG to extend the term for a further 10 years. On January 8, 2014, NRG, signed a sub-lease for ten mining claims to permit exploration and mining for barite. The lease is for a period of 8 years. The lease, as amended, provides that NRG will receive an initial payment of $40,000, advance annual payments of $20,000 per year and provides for royalty payments to NRG of $2.00 per yard of processed barite. The rights under the lease exclude any recovery of gold mineralizations.

- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS [Abstract] | |
- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS | NOTE 9 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS A subsidiary of the Company, (“NRG”), has an outstanding payroll tax obligation to the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS has asserted that approximately $188,352 is owed at this time. The IRS has filed a general lien on all the properties of Nevada Rae, and is taking steps to enforce the liens and collect the funds owed. The enforcement actions will include seeking and taking any funds that are in the company's bank accounts, causing any persons owing funds to Nevada Rea to direct the funds to the IRS, and taking possession of assets of Nevada Rae and selling them. These actions would be disruptive to the operations of the Company and the subsidiary and may impair the ability of Nevada Rae to operate. In that event, Nevada Rae will be unable to generate any revenues and the financial position of the Company will be severely impaired and the Company may have to curtail its subsidiary's operations or put the subsidiary into receivership. |

- GOING CONCERN [Abstract] | |
- GOING CONCERN | NOTE 10 - GOING CONCERN The Company's financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $47,475,593, negative working capital of $1,218,231, and negative cash flows from the six months ended June 30, 2015 of $51,916, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the company financed its operations through the sale of securities, proceeds received from sale of mining claims, and issuance of debt. Management's plan to address the Company's ability to continue as a going concern includes obtaining additional funding from the sale of the Company's securities and establishing revenues. Although management believes that it will be able to obtain the necessary funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. Should we be unsuccessful, the Company may need to discontinue its operations. |

- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On July 15, 2015, the Company sold all of its interest in NRG and the Black Rock Canyon Mine for the following consideration: $300,000, which was all used to satisfy some of the immediate accounts payable of NRG; $100,000 due to the Company on July 15, 2016; and a royalty of 4% on all NRG gold sales up to a maximum total royalty payments of $720,000. The royalty payments can be bought out by the purchaser for $500,000 any time prior to July 15, 2016. All of the payments are subject to a 10% finder's fee which has not yet been paid. On August 26, 2015, the Company let lapse all of its mining rights to the Butcher Boy claims that it leased under a lease agreement held through Fernley Gold. These claims reverted to the claim holders, and the Company will write off the value of the leased interests in its financial statements. On August 31, 2015, the Company acquired the Graysill Mining claims for no consideration, but assumed the annual claims registration fees. These claims had been previously owned by its subsidiary company, Pacific Metals Corp. The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued. |
