RESTATEMENT
During the year the Company changed its accounting policy to account for share issuance costs as an offset to consideration for share capital issued. Accordingly, the Company applied this change retrospectively and the 2005 financial statements were restated to give effect to a reduction of the opening balance of share capital of $243,137 and a corresponding reduction in the opening deficit by the same amount.
In addition, the 2005 share capital balance was decreased by $250,404 with a corresponding reduction in 2005 financing fees and expenses by the same amount.

3.C. Reasons For The Offer And Use Of Proceeds
--- No Disclosure Necessary ---
Risk Factors
Cumulative Unsuccessful Exploration Efforts By Int. KRL Resources’ Personnel Could Result In the Company Having to Cease Operations:
The expenditures to be made by Int. KRL Resources in the exploration of its properties as described herein may not result in discoveries of mineralized material in commercial quantities. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable ore deposits and this occurrence could ultimately result in KRL Resources having to cease operations.
Int. KRL Resources Has No Reserves on the Properties in Which It Has an Interest and If Reserves Are Not Defined the Company Could Have to Cease Operations:
The properties in which Int. KRL Resources has an interest or the concessions in which the Int. KRL Resources has the right to earn an interest are in the exploratory stage only and are without a known body of ore. If Int. KRL Resources does not ultimately find a body of ore, it would have to cease operations.
There is No Guarantee of Clear Title to Any of the Mineral Properties to which Int. KRL Resources Has an Interest:
Unregistered agreements or unregistered transfers of title could cause Int. KRL Resources to forfeit its interests in one or more of its property interests. Forfeiting an interest in a property would result in significant capital losses to Int. KRL Resources.
Mineral Prices May Not Support Corporate Profit for Int. KRL Resources:
The resource exploration industry is intensely competitive and even if commercial quantities of mineral resources are developed (which is not guaranteed), a profitable market may not exist for the sale of same. If a profitable market does not exist Int. KRL Resources could have to cease operations.
Int. KRL Resources Has No Positive Cash Flow and No History of Significant Earnings and Is Dependent Upon Public and Private Distributions of Equity to Obtain Capital in Order to Sustain Operations. Public distributions of capital result in dilution to existing shareholders:
None of Int. KRL Resources’ properties have advanced to the commercial production stage and the Company has no significant history of earnings or positive cash flow from operations. The cumulative loss through May 31, 2006 since the Company’s inception of the development stage, according to U.S. GAAP, is ($11,858,999). The Company does not know if it will ever generate material revenue from mining operations or if it will ever achieve self-sustaining commercial mining operations. Historically, the only source of funds available to the company has been through the sale of its common-voting shares. Any future additional equity financing would cause dilution to current stockholders.
As of November 2, 2006, Int. KRL Resources had 5,184,094 share purchase options outstanding (including 909,094 Agents Options) and 16,662,132 share purchase warrants outstanding. If all of the share purchase warrants and share purchase options were exercised, the number of common-voting shares issued and outstanding would increase from 56,920,334 to 78,766,560. This represents an increase of 38% in the number of shares issued and outstanding and would result in significant dilution to current shareholders.
7
The Amount of Capital Necessary to Meet All Environmental Regulations Associated with the Exploration Programs of Int. KRL Resources Could Be In An Amount Great Enough to Force the Company to Cease Operations:
The current and anticipated future operations of the Company including further exploration activities, require permits from various Canadian governmental authorities. Such operations are subject to various laws governing land use, the protection of the environment, production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, mine safety and other matters. Unfavorable amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of resource exploration companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a materially adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures which could result in a cessation of operations by Int. KRL Resources.
Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions there under, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. Parties engaged in resource exploration may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violation of applicable laws or regulations.
Large increases in capital expenditures resulting from any of the above factors could force Int. KRL Resources to cease operations.
Operating Hazards and Risks Associated with the Mining Industry Could Result in Int. KRL Resources Having to Cease Operations:
Resource exploration activities generally involve a high degree of risk. Hazards such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved. Operations in which the Company has a direct or indirect interest will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally incidental to exploration, development and production of precious and base metals, any of which could result in work stoppages, damage to or destruction of explorationfacilities, damage to life and property, environmental damage and legal liability for any or all damage. Int. KRL Resources may become subject to liability for cave-ins and other hazards for which it cannot insure or against which it may elect not to insure where premium costs are disproportionate to the Company’s perception of the relevant risks. The payment of such insurance premiums and of such liabilities would reduce the funds available for exploration activities and coul d force Int. KRL Resources to cease operations.
The Risks Associated with Penny Stock Classification Could Affect the Marketability of the Common Stock of Int. KRL Resources And Shareholders Could Find It Difficult to Sell Their Stock:
The Company’s stock is subject to “penny stock” rules as defined in 1934 Securities and Exchange Act rule 3a51-1. The Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. The Company’s Class “A” shares are subject to these penny stock rules. Transaction costs associated with purchases and sales of penny stocks are likely to be higher than those for other securities. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than U.S. $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 system).
8
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such 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 agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the Company’s common-voting shares in the United States and shareholders may find it more difficult to sell their shares.
Int. KRL Resources is Dependent on Key Personnel and the Absence of Any of These Individuals Could Result in the Company Having to Cease Operations:
While engaged in the business of exploiting mineral properties, the nature of Int. KRL Resources’ business, its ability to continue its exploration of potential exploration projects, and to develop a competitive edge in the marketplace, depends, in large part, on its ability to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense and the Company may not be able to attract and retain such personnel. Int. KRL Resources’ growth will depend, on the efforts of its Senior Management, particularly its President and Chief Executive Officer, Seamus Young, its Chief Financial Officer, Judith T. Mazvihwa, and Vice President of Exploration Michael Hibbitts. Loss of these individuals could have a materially adverse effect on the Company. Int. KRL Resources has no key-man life insurance or written consulting agreements with the Senior Officers or Directors.
Control by Principal Stockholders, Officers and Directors Could Adversely Affect Stockholders of Int. KRL Resources
The Company’s Senior Management, Directors and greater-than-five-percent stockholders (and their affiliates), acting together, have the ability to control substantially all matters submitted to Int. KRL Resources’ stockholders for approval (including the election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets) and to control the Company’s management and affairs. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Int. KRL Resources, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving the Company or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company, which in turn could materially adversely affect the market price of the Company’s stock.
Dilution Through Employee/Director/Consultant Options Could Adversely Affect Stockholders of Int. KRL Resources
Because the success of Int. KRL Resources is highly dependent upon its respective employees, the Company has granted to some or all of its key employees, Directors and consultants options to purchase common-voting shares as non-cash incentives. To the extent that significant numbers of such options may be granted and exercised, the interests of the other stockholders of the Company may be diluted.
9
U.S. Investors May Not Be Able to Enforce Their Civil Liabilities Against Int. KRL Resources or Our Its Directors, Controlling Persons and Officers
It may be difficult to bring and enforce suits against Int. KRL Resources. The Company is a corporation incorporated in Canada under the laws of British Columbia, and governed by the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). A majority of the Company's directors are residents of Canada, and all or substantial portions of their assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. holders of our common shares to effect service of process on these persons within the United States or to realize in the United States upon judgments rendered against them. In addition, a shareholder should not assume that the courts of Canada (i) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States, or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities again st us or such persons predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States.
However, U.S. laws would generally be enforced by a Canadian court provided that those laws are not contrary to Canadian public policy, are not foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government and provided that they are in compliance with applicable Canadian legislation regarding the limitation of actions. Also, a Canadian court would generally recognize a judgment obtained in a U.S. Court except, for example:
a) Where the U.S. court where the judgment was rendered had no jurisdiction according to applicable Canadian law;

The Company has incurred such Canadian exploration expenses (primarily expenses incurred for determining the existence, location, extent or quality of a mineral resource in Canada in the course of carrying out geological survey and sampling work. There is a risk to the Company that if Revenue Canada denies the d eductions in the hands of the investor penalties could be levied by Revenue Canada and that the shareholders could sue the Company for damages.

4.B. BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Historical Corporate Development
For the past three years, the Company has been active in mineral exploration work in Canada in the provinces of Ontario, British Columbia, Yukon Territory, and Saskatchewan. The Company is currently concentrating the majority of its efforts on its Nor Property in the Yukon Territory and the Copper Hill Property, which is located in Ontario. The Company has been inactive for the past four years on its Bear River Project, which is located in the Skeena Mining Division in British Columbia; however, management plans to carry out exploration work on this project during Fiscal 2007.

Location and Access to Copper Hill Gold Project
The Copper Hill property is situated in northeastern Ontario about 85 km southeast of Timmins covering an area of 56 sq. mile (17,000 hectares) (Figure 1). It is located along Highway 560 about 10 km east of the Hamlet of Shining Tree, in the Larder Lake Mining Division, NTS 41 P/11. Provincial Highway 560 crosses through the middle the property. The Bay Lumber road and several secondary old logging and forestry roads provide access to the interior parts of the property. See Figure 1 for local location map.
The property consists of a group of 244 wholly owned mineral claims located in MacMurchy, Natal, Tyrrell, Leonard, Kevin, and Churchill Townships. The company needs to spend CDN$330,800, which equates to CDN$400 per claim unit annually to keep the property in good standing for one year.
Spin Off of the Copper Hill Property to Golden Harp Resources Inc- Wholly Owned Subsidiary of International KRL Resources Corp.
Reduction of Stated Capital and Return of Capital
Introduction
The Company owns 10,000,000 common shares (the “GHR Shares”) in the capital of Golden Harp Resources Inc. (“GHR”) which GHR Shares were acquired by the Company in a spin-off of its Copper Hill Property (as more fully described below under “GHR Background”). GHR is currently seeking reporting issuer status and if successful, the Company proposes, subject to the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”) to distribute all of the GHR Shares (the “Return of Capital Shares”) to shareholders of the Companypro rata,based on the respective numbers of Common Shares held as of the record date for such distribution, as described below.
It is proposed that the distribution of the Return of Capital Shares by the Company will be by way of return of capital (the “Return of Capital”). In order to do so, the Company proposes to reduce its stated capital by an amount equal to the aggregate fair market value of the Return of Capital Shares (the “Reduction of Capital Amount”).
Under Section 74 of theBusiness Corporations Act(British Columbia) the Company can reduce its stated capital if it is authorized to do so by an order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”). The Company proposes to seek such approval when GHR becomes a reporting issuer and its shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.
In the interim, to satisfy the requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange concerning the disposition by the Company of a significant asset of the Company, the shareholders were asked to consider passing, with or without amendment, an ordinary resolution (the “Stated Capital Reduction Resolution. At International KRL Resources Corp.’s Annual General Meeting held on November 29, 2006, the majority shareholders voted in favor of distributing the share of Golden Harp Resources Inc. to its shareholders and passed the Stated Capital Reduction Resolution. This authorized the Company to reduce its stated capital by the Reduction of Capital Amount, consideration for which will be provided by way of distribution of the Return of Capital Sharespro rata,based on the respective numbers of Common Shares held, to all shareholders of the Company of record on the close of business on the 7th trading day after the day on which the Stated Capital Reduction Resolution is approved by the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Return of Capital Record Date”).
The Reduction of Capital Amount will be based upon the 10-day weighted average trading price of the GHS Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange for the 10-day period preceding the date of the application to the Court for approval of the Reduction of Stated Capital or upon such other reasonable basis as may be determined by the Court.
21
It is intended that the Return of Capital will, if approved by the Court, occur as soon as practicable following the establishment of the Return of Capital Record Date. As described above, the Return of Capital Shares will be distributed to the shareholders of the Company (as at the Return of Capital Record Date)pro rata,based on the respective numbers of Common Shares held by them as at the Return of Capital Record Date.
GHR Background
GHR was incorporated in May 2006 as a subsidiary of the Company for the purpose of “spinning -off” to the Company’s shareholders its various mineral properties located in the Shining Tree Area in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt of Northeast Ontario (the “Copper Hill Property”).
The Return of Capital Shares were issued to the Company on May 31, 2006 when 10,000,000 GHR Shares were issued to the Company in consideration of the transfer by the Company of the Copper Hill Property at a deemed issue price of $0.32 per share. GHR is currently seeking reporting issuer status and proposes to complete an initial public offering (the “GHR IPO”) early in 2007 and list its shares on the TSX Venture Exchange. There can be no assurance that that such listing will be completed or that the GHR IPO will be completed.
Mechanics of the Return of Capital Distribution
As noted above, it is anticipated that the Return of Capital will occur as soon as practicable following the Return of Capital Record Date through the distribution of the Return of Capital Shares to shareholders of the Company of record as of the Return of Capital Record Date(pro rata,based on the respective numbers of Common Shares held).
Shareholders will not be required to pay for any Return of Capital Shares that they receive under the Return of Capital nor will they be required to surrender or exchange Common Shares in order to receive Return of Capital Shares or to take any other action in connection with such distribution.
No fractional Return of Capital Shares will be distributed under the Return of Capital and no consideration will be paid in lieu thereof. Any fractional Return of Capital Shares that persons would otherwise be entitled to receive will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The balance of Return of Capital Shares not distributed to shareholders as a result of such rounding down will not be distributed under the Return of Capital and will continue to be held by the Company.
Certain Canadian securities regulatory authorities, as a condition for providing the exemptive relief required to permit the Company to distribute the Return of Capital Shares, the Return of Capital Shares received by shareholders under the Return of Capital may be subject to a four month ‘seasoning period’, meaning that such shares may not be freely tradeable for a period of 4 months from the Return of Capital Record Date (and the certificates evidencing the Return of Capital Shares may include a legend to this effect).
Notwithstanding approval by the shareholders of the Return of Capital, the directors of the Company may determine not to proceed with the reduction of its stated capital.
22
Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to shareholders who receive Return of Stated Capital Shares in connection with the Return of Capital by the Company and who, for the purposes of theIncome Tax Act(Canada) (the “Tax Act”), are individuals resident in Canada, deal at arm’s length with the Company and hold their Common Shares as capital property.
This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and an understanding of the current published administrative practices and assessing policies of the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”).
Shareholders who receive Return of Stated Capital Shares pursuant to the Return of Capital should generally be considered to have received a dividend only to the extent (if any) that the fair market value of the Return of Capital Shares so received exceeds the amount of the stated capital reduction in respect of the shareholder’s Common Shares. The Corporation does not expect that the distribution of the Return of Capital Shares will result in a shareholder being deemed to receive a dividend. Based on the Canada Revenue Agency’s (“CRA”) administrative policy, shareholders will be considered to have acquired the Return of Capital Shares at a cost equal to their fair market value.
The aggregate fair market value of the Return of Capital Shares received by a shareholder (other than any amount deemed to be a dividend as described above) will be deducted from the shareholder’s adjusted cost base (and paid-up capital) of his or her Common Shares. To the extent that the reduction exceeds the adjusted cost base of a shareholder’s Common Shares as otherwise determined, the holder will be deemed to have realized a capital gain equal to such excess and the adjusted cost base of the shareholder’s Common Shares will be nil.
For these purposes, shareholders will be advised following the Return of Capital Record Date as to the Corporation’s calculation of the fair market value of the Return of Capital Shares distributed to shareholders. Any determination of fair market value by the Corporation is not binding on CRA or any of the shareholders.
No advance income tax ruling has been sought or obtained from CRA to confirm the tax consequences of the distribution of Return of Stated Capital Shares to shareholders.
US Shareholder Considerations
The Company has not sought advice from US legal counsel with respect to the Return of Capital, therefore US resident shareholders should consult their own legal and accounting professionals for advice as to the impact of US law upon the proposed Return of Capital.
Recommendation of the Board
The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the Stated Capital Reduction Resolution.

During Fiscal 2002 the Company acquired a 100% interest in seven mining claims (68 units) contiguous with its Copper Hill Project. The company acquired it interest in these claims from Charles Webster, an unrelated party, by paying Mr. Webster 50,000 shares of its common stock. The Company also did fieldwork in the Golden Sylvia area of the Copper Hill Project. This fieldwork consisted of geological mapping; detailed rock sampling and exploratory drilling.
The shareholders of the Company approved a name change from KRL Resources Corp. to International KRL Resources Corp. on December 7, 2001 and at the same time approved a consolidation of the Company’s issued and unissued common shares on a basis of five old shares for one new share. Both the name change and the share consolidation became effective on March 6, 2002 with the approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.
During Fiscal 2003, the Company continued exploration work on its Copper Hill Project. On October 9, 2002, the Company sold 1,300,000 units for gross proceeds of $195,000. These funds were used for further exploration work on the Golden Sylvia portion of the Copper Hill Project. After three months of work, on January 6, 2003, the Company announced that it had completed this program and would begin to drill test the results of the findings. A 1500-meter drill hole program was started on February 13, 2003. This program consisted of ten drill holes, five of which were completed by March 3, 2003. An additional three drill holes were completed by the end of March 2003. The Company announced at the end of March 2003 that the drill program had been expanded from 1500 meters to 2500 meters and would consist of twelve drill holes. This program was completed on April 15, 2003.
During Fiscal 2004 the Company continued work on the Copper Hill Project. On October 30, 2003, the Company announced that it begun a new drill program on the Jude Zone (formerly called the Golden Sylvia Zone) and the adjacent Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone. Four drill holes were completed by November 5, 2003. Two of these were on the Jude Zone and two were on the Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone. Two additional drill holes were completed on the Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone by November 13, 2003.
On November 17, 2003, management announced that they planned to expand their exploration program at the Copper Hill Project to include searching for nickel.
On December 1, 2003, the Company announced that it had received assay data for all of the drill holes completed during the program announced on October 30, 2003, on both the Jude Zone and the Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone. The Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone was the main focus of this particular drill program and, because of the results obtained from the drilling; management decided that the Company would continue a systematic exploration program to fully evaluate the Zone along strike and at depth.
On December 2, 2003, the Company announced that it had acquired an additional ten kilometers of unexplored iron formation located to the south, southeast of the Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone.
On December 9, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire an additional forty-seven mineral claims in the area.
27
On January 29, 2004 RAB Special Situations L.P., an unrelated financial institution located in the United Kingdom, announced that it had subscribed for 3,900,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.20 per share. Each unit consisted of one common share and one non-transferable share purchase warrant which entitled RAB Financial to purchase an additional share at a rice of $0.20 for a period of one year. (This transaction took place off the market by way of a private placement.)
On February 9, 2004, the Company announced that it had entered into an option agreement with a private unrelated company called Hemlo North Shore Inc. to jointly explore the Decker Claim Block located in the northeast portion of the Company’s Copper Hill Property. Under the terms of this agreement, Hemlo North Shore Inc. agreed to spend a total of $1.2 million on the project over a four-year period to earn a 50% interest in the Decker Claim Block with a minimum annual commitment of $300,000 per year. On February 18, 2004, the Company and Hemlo North Shore Inc. began a 1009 m drill program on the project.
The purpose of this drill program was to further evaluate known gold mineralization found within the LG Zone and the Tiger Zone previously discovered by International KRL Resources in the early 1990s. Five holes (631 m total) were drilled on LG Zone and three holes (378 m total) were drilled on the Tiger Zone. Both of theses zones are within the original Decker mining leases. The highlight of this program was a high-grade gold intercept from a follow up hole AD 223 on the LG Zone which assayed 14.43 g/t gold over 2 m, including a higher grade of 28.39 g/t over 1 m.
The three drill holes on the Tiger Zone were designed to test the down dip and strike extent of a thick gold bearing graphitic package intersected in a single drill hole in the mid 1990’s by International KRL. The original discovery intercept on the Tiger Zone from Hole AD18 assayed1.13 g/t gold over 11 m. (including a one meter interval which assayed 5.76 g/t gold).Only drill hole AD 28 drilled to the north of discovery hole AD 18 intersected the Tiger Zone and assayed0.62 g/t gold over 13.71 m.(including a 1 m interval which assayed 4.19 g/t gold). Drill holes AD 29 and AD30 located south of the original discovery hole (AD 18) confirms that a significant change in geology occurs due to the presence of porphyritic intrusives which appear to have cut off the Tiger Zone gold horizon. These porphyritic intrusives and some of the proximal volcanics were mineralized with sulphides and were noted to conta in anomalous gold values.
The relationship between the porphyritic intrusives proximal to the Tiger Zone and those found near the LG Zone 300 meters to the North-west is not known. Further evaluation will be required to determine the nature of relationship between the LG Zone, the Tiger Zone and the porphyritic intrusive units. Particular attention is being paid to the porphyritic intrusives due to the presence of high grade gold found within or along the contact of the porphyritic intrusives in the immediate vicinity of the LG Zone.
The gold bearing zones on the Decker Property are located within a very favourable geological environment. Many of the known gold bearing zones on the property are associated with mineralized quartz rich structural breaks hosted within carbonate altered mafics, fushitic ultramafics and/or associated feldspar porphyritic intrusives. This environment is typical of that found with many gold deposits located within the Timmins-Porcupine and Kirkland-Larder Lake gold camps within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.
The Company completed this 1009 m diamond drill program with Hemlo North Shore Inc. on March 25, 2004.
28
On March 3, 2004, the Company began a high-resolution, fixed-wing airborne
geophysical survey on the Copper Hill Project. The survey was conducted by Fugro Airborne Surveys with a high sensitivity magnetometer. The survey covered approximately 1100km of flight lines. The purpose of the survey was to assist ongoing exploration and generate additional exploration targets on International KRL Resources extensive land holding. The survey was completed mid April 2004 and the identified targets were followed up by a reverse circulation drilling program, mapping and geochemical sampling.
On June 10, 2004, the Company started a reverse circulation-drilling program on the Golden Sylvia Iron Formation Zone located within the Copper Hill Project. The program consisted of 53 vertical reverse circulation drill holes totaling of 4,974.15 m. The program tested the Golden Sylvia iron formation and expanded the strike extent of the mineralized system and established continuity. The results of this program validated earlier historic diamond drill intercepts and extended mineralization to 300 m with the system open on strike to both the east and west and down dip. A low-grade intercept of 0.83g/t gold over 6.12 m in RCGS-04-18 on line 950W, suggests that mineralization extends even further to the west.
In August/September 2005, International KRL Resources Corp. drilled CH-05-14 to test the GEOTEM conductor in the middle of North Foley Lake, located on the eastern extension of the Red Dome Rhyolite on the Copper Hill Property. The 600 meters long conductor, striking roughly north-west/south-east and dipping to the south-west, was identified by a GEOTEM airborne electromagnetic survey carried out in the winter 2004.
The 351 meters hole intersected a sequence of fragmental felsic volcanics, chert and mafic volcanics with moderate carbonate, minor sericite and local hematite alteration. No significant assay results were identified in this unit. The last 3.9 meters of the hole returned a weighted average of 0.8 grams/tonne gold. The Qualified Person for this project is J. L. LeBel (P.Eng.).

Nor Property, Yukon Territory, Canada (Copper, Gold, Uranium)
The Nor Property is located on the east flank of the Richardson Mountains, about 65 km east of the Dempster Highway and 250km north of Dawson City, Yukon Territory. The property exhibits some similarities to the Olympic Dam Geology Model in Australia, including some similarities in geology, presence of anomalous uranium, copper, gold and rare earth elements and very large magnetic and gravity anomalies. The property has not previously been explored as a uranium target.
The Nor Property is comprised of 448 claims covering 23,127 acres (9,363 hectares) and is an iron oxide/copper/gold (IOCG) target. The property is associated with a large gravity and magnetic anomaly with the Nor heterolithic hematite-rich diatreme breccia outlined along an 8km strike. The Nor Property is underlain by Proterozoic rocks of the Wernecke Supergroup that have been intruded by a heterolithic, hematite- rich diatreme breccia. The property is located on the east side of the Richardson Mountains in an area that is transacted by the Richardson Fault array. These faults are part of a major rift system that became active during Proterozoic time and has remained active since that time during the development of the Cordillera. The exposure of Proterozoic rocks is a faulted-bounded outlier that is surrounded by Paleozoic sedimentary rocks that dip gently away to the east and west from the Nor Property.
International KRL acquired the right to earn a 100% interest subject to a 2% NSR by an option agreement signed in October, 2004. The terms of the option are detailed in note 4(b) in the financial statements. Since signing the option, the Company has staked additional ground contiguous to, and in the vicinity of, the property.

In 2005 International KRL Resources Corp. carried out a geophysics and geochemical sampling program. The aeromagnetic helicopter survey was flown by McPhar Geosurveys Ltd. (McPhar) using a high-sensitivity caesium magnetometer. The magnetometer bird was flown at a nominal height of 45m. The survey totalled 1155 km on 155 flight lines (100 m spacing), plus 123 km on 8 tie lines (1 km spacing). The flight lies were flown at an azimuth of 65o and the perpendicular tie lines at 155o. The data were field processed by McPhar then forwarded to their Newmarket office for final levelling and filtering.
The survey was successful in defining many obvious and more subtle features of the Richardson fault array as well as providing high resolution magnetic coverage of the Nor ridge. Standard colour contoured Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI) map a collection of filtered and derivative maps were produced and a presentation of the survey was given to the Company by VOX Geoscience Ltd. The Qualified Person for the geophysical portion of the project is Ken Robertson (P.Geo.).
The Company also completed a geochemical soil survey and an induced polarization and gravity surveys on the property. Over 1,100 soil samples were collected for analysis from a surveyed grid on the property this year. Soil samples were collected at 50 m intervals along survey lines spaced at 400 m and 200 m apart. Geochemical analyses for 36 elements were conducted by Acme Analytical Labs in Vancouver. Sampling was conducted by a crew from Ryanwood Exploration under the direction of Mark Terry, the on-site company geologist. The Qualified Person for the program is Michael H. Sanguinetti, P. Eng.
Initial evaluation of the geochemical results indicated coincident copper and uranium anomalies extending intermittently along 8.5 km over the surveyed length of the property. In addition, coincident rare earth element (REE) anomalies were identified along the anomalous copper-uranium trend.
The geophysical work was conducted by Aurora field crews under the guidance of M. A. Power, P. Geoph., a Qualified Person for the geophysical program. The gravity survey, collected from 79 stations, determined that there is a steep gradient from west to east across the axis of the Proterozoic sediments. A total of 50.5 line km of induced polarization (IP) was conducted over the whole property on surveyed grid lines 400 m apart.
Evaluation of the induced polarization survey results indicated conductivity and resistivity anomalies coincident with copper and uranium geochemical anomalies. In the vicinity of L 2400N/2900E is a flat lying conductive zone within a larger resistivity low and coincident with an 800 m x 800 m 2 mGal gravity anomaly. When compared with the geological mapping these geophysical anomalies align with a significant area (650 x 400m) of potassic feldspar alteration. In addition, a coincident lanthanum (a rare earth element), copper and uranium soil anomaly occurs within this trend. Other significant resistivity and chargeability anomalies elsewhere on the grid are reported from the survey, many of which warrant drill testing.
Targets for the diamond drilling program for the 2006 field season were selected from the coincident geophysical, geochemical and geological anomalies.

43-101 Report on Nor Property
The Company filed with the B.C. Securities Commission an independent NI 43-101 compliant, technical report on the Nor Property. The author of the report is Peter T. George, P. Geo., a consulting geologist based in Ontario. The property is in a geological setting with striking similarities to the Gawlor Craton of South Australia, where the world-class Olympic Dam copper-uranium-gold-rare earth element deposit is located.
The report by Mr. George reviews results of the 2005 geophysical, geological mapping and geochemical sampling work and proposes an aggressive exploration program for the 2006 season. He states that the 2005 airborne geophysical surveys indicate that the NOR heterolithic hematite-rich diatreme breccia, which outcrops at the north end of NOR ridge, continues to the south for a total strike distance of approximately 8 kilometres. The size of this breccia target is similar to the size of the Olympic Dam copper-gold-uranium deposit. The 2005 soil geochemical program outlines anomalous areas of copper, uranium, gold and lanthanum (rare earth) which typify the system of the Olympic Dam-type mineralization. Historical (1978 – 1980) results from early work at NOR by Getty Minerals returned samples of up to 4% U and 0.6% Cu.
Based on the results of both historical work and the 2005 exploration data, Mr. George compares the primary characteristics of the NOR and the Olympic Dam deposit, and concludes that the NOR Property warrants an intensive exploration program to test the potential for a large Olympic Dam-type body. He recommends an initial 15,000 m drilling program at depths of up to 1500 feet below surface along the 8 km trend of the NOR ridge. The estimated budget for this proposed 2006 exploration is $3.3 million.
This NI 43-101 compliant Evaluation Report on the NOR Property is available for viewing on SEDAR. The Qualified Person for the NOR Project was Michael Sanguinetti, (P.Eng.)
Nor Property Diamond Drilling
Subsequent to year end, the Company drilled nine holes, representing just over 1,600 m or 10% of the 15,000-m diamond drill program originally planned. International KRL Resources Corp. shipped over 1200 samples of core to Acme for multi-element analysis. Highlights of the program include Hole 009-06 which intersected 20 m of 0.25% Cu (including 7 m of 0.32% Cu) and Hole 005-06 which intersected 2 m of 0.9% Cu (including 1 m of 1.6% Cu) and 5 m of 0.6% Cu (including 3 m of 0.7% Cu). Out of the nine holes that were drilled, copper mineralization was intersected in four. Results are provided below. The priority uranium targets will be tested in the 2007 season.

Hole 009-06 was the most successful outcome of this exercise and was the last hole drilled in the 2006 field season. The drilling clarified the geological model further leading to a focus on the contact of the Wernecke Breccia and the Proterozoic Fairchild Lake Group Rocks. The model is analogous to the Olympic Dam where mineralization is concentrated on the contacts represented by a change of alteration. Hole 005-06 intersected the highest grades of 0.9% Cu over 2 m (including 1.6% Cu over 1 m) and 0.6% Cu over 5 m (including 0.7% Cu over 3 m). The intersections from this hole confirmed the surface soil geochemistry results. The mineralized fraction is a very distinctive zone in the entire geologic package.

The results from the drill program showed that there is mineralization and alteration throughout the Nor property, however, it was unable to complete the extensive drill program or comprehensive evaluation of its priority targets as a result of a shortage of experienced diamond drill crews and operational problems from aging equipment supplied by the drill contractor. Management felt it prudent to end the drill program early and preserve the capital in the treasury to apply it to next year’s program.
International KRL Resources is in the process of negotiating contracts and securing alternative drilling solutions in preparation for next season so they can continue evaluating the property. Numerous high priority targets remain to be tested.
Carswell Property, Saskatchewan – Uranium
The Carswell uranium property is located on the Carswell Dome Formation in the Athabasca Basin. On March 2, 2005 the Company granted an option to ESO Uranium Corp. (previously Essendon Solutions Inc.) to acquire a 50% interest in the property for total present and future consideration of $25,000, 200,000 shares and a commitment to expend $100,000 on exploration on the property.
In October 2005, a Megatem II airborne geophysical survey was carried out by ESO over the property. The magnetic signature of International KRL’s ground shows a central low area running NNW-SSE flanked by two higher magnetic regimes and this has some similarity to the magnetic setting for several of the Cluff Lake deposits. The magnetic low was interpreted to indicate metasedimentary rocks that may include graphitic horizons, which if faulted, can form conductive structures. Elsewhere in the Athabasca Basin, such conductors are associated with uranium deposits. Five conductors were identified by the Megatem survey within and subparallel to the central magnetic low.
1n October 2006, ESO Uranium Corp. (ESO) conducted an extensive ground geophysical exploration program in the Western Athabasca Basin which covered International KRL’s Carswell project. The Company was advised that the preliminary results of the ground geophysical horizontal loop electromagnetic survey confirmed a number of conductors that were identified on International KRL’s ground by an airborne geophysical survey conducted in October 2005. The Compnay is currently working on a joint venture agreement for its Carswell Property.

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
The following discussion for the fiscal years ended 5/31/2006, 5/31/2005, 5/31/2004, and 5/31/2003 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto.
Overview for 5/31/2006
During the period, the Company raised a net cash amount of $4,266,940 from private placements and the exercise of warrants and options. An amount of $1,506,508 was spent on mineral interests. Administration expenses amounted to $826,242, including stock based compensation of $320,864 but excluding financing fees of $244,777.

International KRL does not generate revenues as a mineral exploration company. It is the increased exploration activity, which generates increased losses. This is standard to the nature of the exploration business. Other losses can be caused by write-downs or write-offs of assets, which do not follow a trend. The Company’s success in the past year in the raising of capital enabled the Company to increase its exploration activity, build its team and pursue more business development activities, which combined have resulted in a higher loss figure. The decrease in net loss from prior year stems from the combination of the future income tax recovery of $958,536 due to the renunciation of flow-through shares net of future income tax expense of $418,000. There was a gain on the sale of marketable securities and the proceeds from the interest income generated by placing the proceeds of the financing activities into short-ter m guaranteed investment certificates.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company has a future income tax recovery of $540,536 due to the renunciation of flow-through shares. The net loss in the current period before other (income) expense was $826,242 compared to $655,112 in the prior year reflecting an increase of $171,130. This increase is due mainly to promotion and travel, which increased from $82,156 to $174,582, an increase of $94,426 mainly due to increased efforts to raise the profile of the Company. In general, administrative expenses reflect the normal corporate business cycle. Line item increases/decreases in costs relate to the Company’s additional efforts to provide greater administrative support to management’s ongoing efforts to seek new properties, monitor exploration expenditures, and increase shareholder value.
·
Administration salaries increased by $19,294 and management fees increased by $12,900 due to an increase in staff and providing competitive salaries to attract experienced and qualified personnel.
·
Office expenses increased by $24,266 mainly due to increased costs of the new premises required to accommodate the growth in staff.
·
Professional fees increased by $28,555 due to an under provision of costs relating to the previous years auditor’s fees and increase in contracts surrounding the spin off of Golden Harp Resources Inc.
·
Promotion and travel increased by $94,426 due to increased efforts to raise the profile of the Company by attending additional investment conferences, advertising and activities surrounding the financing initiatives.
SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS
(Restated – See note 13 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the twelve months ended May 31, 2006)
| May 31, 2006 | Feb 28, 2006 | Nov 30, 2005 | Aug 31, 2005 | May 31, 2005 | Feb. 28, 2005 | Nov 30, 2004 | Aug 31, 2004 |
Net income (loss) | 580,532 | (436,621) | (97,597) | (233,970) | (322,651) | (101,255) | (88,291) | (96,830) |

For each of the above periods, the Company had no income except for the last period where a tax recovery changed the loss to income. Net loss and loss before discontinued operations and extraordinary items are as indicated above, for all periods. Net loss per share was realized on a basic and diluted basis for all periods.
49
LIQUIDITY
As at May 31, 2006, the Company had working capital totaling $3,712,010. These funds should be sufficient for the Company to meet its working capital needs and property payment commitments in the coming year and to carry out a significant amount of exploration. Nonetheless, in the long term, as the Company has no regular source of revenue, it will be continuing to seek new equity capital, through private placements or public offerings.
During the period, net cash used in operating activities was $556,196, net cash used in investing activities was $2,294,866 and net cash provided by financing activities was $4,192,657. This resulted in a net increase in cash of $1,341,595 from the Company’s cash position for the year.
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION
Significant changes in the Company’s financial position are as follow:
The cash increase in mineral interests of $1,506,508 reflect mainly the exploration expenditures and acquisition costs of $275,137 incurred at Copper Hill, Ontario and $1,256,203 incurred at the Nor Property, Yukon.
The increase in share capital of $3,468,519 was due to private placement financings and the exercise of warrants and options, details of which are listed in Note 6 accompanying the consolidated financial statements.
The increase in contributed surplus of $166,466 represents the fair value of stock options granted during the period to directors, consultants and brokers, net of cancellations/forfeited and exercised. Details are outlined in Note 9 accompanying the consolidated financial statements.
Overview for 5/31/2005
During the year, the Company raised a gross amount of $2.2 million from private placements and the exercise of warrants. $62,000 was spent on property option payments and new property acquisitions. $790,000 was spent on mineral exploration. Administration expenses amounted to $309,000 (calculated as total expenses less financing fees, option gains, write-offs and write-downs and stock based compensation).
With the price of precious metals rising since November 2001, management will concentrate the majority of its efforts on the Company’s mineral exploration projects in Canada.
SELECTED ANNUAL INFORMATION (expressed in Canadian dollars)

Total assets | 5,569,509 | 3,755,045 | 2,709,503 |
As the Company has no revenues, increased activity causes increased losses. Other losses can be caused by write-downs or write-offs of assets which do not follow a trend. The increased success in the past year in the raising of capital has allowed the company to increase its activity which has resulted in a higher loss figure.

Results of Operations
Fiscal Year 2005 Ended 5/31/2005 vs Fiscal Year 2004 Ended 5/31/2004
Net loss in the current year was $609,027 (restated) compared to $424,673 (restated) in the prior year. Most office expense categories increased due to increased activity by the Company however other categories benefited from increased sharing of costs by Logan Resources Ltd. Significant line item changes were as follows:
·
Professional fees dropped from $94,797 to $29,470 due to a combination of factors including extra accounting needed for the Company's registration with the SEC in the prior year, Canaccord financing legal costs in the prior year of $20,000 and a $12,000 reversal in the current year of prior year legal fees recorded in error.
·
Administration salaries were up from $48,597 to $80,155 due to the hiring on a shared basis of additional office staff.
·
Share issuance costs were up from $95,421 to $250,404 due mainly to the increase in capital raised from $1.5 million in 2004 to $2.2 million in 2005 and a more rigorous categorization of financing direct legal and broker legal costs to financing.
·
Promotion and travel decreased from $71,715 to $41,207 due to decreased travel costs that in the prior year included a trip to Europe and attendance at shows by more company personnel. This year the Company participated in the New York Gold Show, New Orleans Investor Conference, the San Francisco Investor Show, the Vancouver Investment Conference and the Prospectors and Developers Conference. However, in the current year, Logan Resources Ltd. was able to share much of the costs. Also, in the prior year, more was spent on custom display material.
·
Stock exchange and filing fees were down from $41,595 to $16,504 mainly due to costs associated with registration with the SEC incurred in the prior year.
·
Stock-based compensation increased from $39,722 to $327,787 due to increased grants of stock options to employees, consultants, and financing agents and an increase in the expected volatility of the Company's share price. This expense is entirely non-cash.
·
The gain on property option represents the excess of the value of shares and cash received during the year pursuant to the optioning of 50% of the Company’s interest in the Carswell property, over the Company’s cost of acquisition and exploration on the property.

For each of the above periods, the Company had no revenue. Net loss and loss before discontinued operations and extraordinary items was the same for all periods. Net loss per share was the same on a basic and diluted basis for all periods.
Loss in the last quarter was exceptionally high due to $309,607 of non-cash stock based compensation.
51
LIQUIDITY
As at May 31, 2005, the Company had a working capital balance of $1,439,778. This included flow-through share funds of $1.3 million, which are committed to mineral exploration in Canada. Since the year end, the Company has raised an additional $545,000 from the issue of non-flow-through shares and an additional $312,500 from the issue of flow-through shares. These funds will be sufficient for the Company to meet its working capital needs and property payment commitments (currently $30,000) in the coming year and to carry out a significant amount of exploration. Nonetheless, in the longer term, as the company has no regular source of revenue, it will be continuing to seek new equity capital, through private placements or public offerings.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION
Marketable securities, on the balance sheet at the current year end, represents shares received, as option payments, on the Carswell property.
The increase in mineral properties of $874,920 includes acquisition of the Nor property in the Yukon - $73,665 and the Carswell property in Saskatchewan - Nil (after recording the full recovery of the original $4,071 of staking costs by optioning 50% of the property to ESO Minerals). Additionally, $19,000 was spent on option payments and staking on the Copper Hill property before write-offs of $18,000. The remaining increase of $802,065, represents explorations expenditures on the Copper Hill property in Ontario ($735,000) and the start of a continuing geophysics program on the Nor property in the Yukon ($78,183 before tax credits).
The net reduction in related party receivables and payables of $10,141 is mostly made up of a reduction in amounts receivable from Logan Resources Ltd. for shared office costs including accounting and mineral property management.
The increase in share capital of $2.3 million is due to private placement financings, the exercise of warrants, share payments to financing agents and the issue of shares under property options, the details of which are listed in note 8 to the financial statements.
Contributed surplus increases represent the value of stock-based compensation made during the year to employees, contractors and financing agents.
52
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Fiscal Year 2004 Ended 5/31/2004 vs Fiscal Year 2003 Ended 5/31/2003
The Company has no producing properties and consequently has no operating income or cash flow from its mineral properties. Exploration expenditures are capitalized as incurred until and unless it is determined that the property is to be abandoned. At that time all capitalized costs of the property are written off to operations in the current period.
Net loss increased in 2004 by approximately $110,000 over the net loss for the prior year. For the most part, this increase is represented by administration expense increases.
Administration expenses increased by approximately $130,000 over the previous year. This was largely due to an increased effort by management to communicate to investors and to raise new capital, increased filing fees and new stock-based compensation rules. The reduction in financing fees was due to more direct investments in the Company. The new investor relations caption represents costs of in-house investor relations consultants. Legal fees were lower mainly due to a title search and opinion carried out in the previous year. Promotion and travel costs increased as management attended more mining conventions than the prior year and had greater representation. This caption also includes additional costs in support of the new investor relations personnel. Stock exchange and filing fees increased substantially due to registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“20F registration”) whic h was completed subsequently to the year-end. The new caption, stock-based compensation, represents the value of stock options granted to directors, employees and consultants. As noted in the financial statements, the Black-Scholes method was used to value these options at a weighted average amount of $0.03 per share. These amounts have no effect on the cash flow of the company. No amount was recorded in the prior year as the requirement to record these amounts, by the CICA, only came into effect in the current year.
The operator management fees represent fees earned under an option agreement signed during the year that optioned out 50% of the Company’s interest in the Decker Claim Block of the Copper Hill property. Pursuant to this agreement, the optionee is to fund a total $1.2 million worth of exploration on the property, including a supervision fee to the Company for supervising the exploration.

FOURTH QUARTER
No significant changes in the Company’s activities occurred in the fourth quarter. The drill program on the Golden Sylvia Iron Formation continued.
Results of Operations
Fiscal 2003 Ended 5/31/2003 vs. Fiscal 2002 Ended 5/31/2002
During the financial years ending May 31, 2003 and May 31, 2002, the company realized no income.
The Company’s activity increased significantly during Fiscal 2003 as compared to Fiscal 2002. This increased activity is described in the prior section: 4.B Business Overview.
Expenses incurred during the financial year ended May 31, 2003, were $410,918, which represented an increase of $260,946 over expenses of $149,972 incurred during the financial year ended May 31, 2002.
The most significant component of the increase in expenses was in the category of “financing fees”. During Fiscal 2003, the Company raised $1,060,500 through the sale of units and the exercise of share purchase options. During Fiscal 2002, the Company only raised $237,500 resulting in significantly lower associated costs which are directly correlated with the size of the financing.
During Fiscal 2003 other notable expense category increases resulting from the increased corporate activity were as follows:
1.
Accounting and audit: An increase of $12,691 or 77%. The increase in these fees was a direct result of the higher number of financings, which occurred during Fiscal 2003 as compared to Fiscal 2002. Each financing required separate input from the Company’s auditor.
2.
Legal fees: An increase of $64,788 or approximately 400%. The increase in these fees was a direct result of the higher number of financings, which occurred during Fiscal 2003 as compared to Fiscal 2002. Each financing required legal services from the Company’s legal counsel. These services consisted primarily of the preparation of offering documents.
54
3.
Office and miscellaneous: An increase of $12,106 or 118%. The increase in office and miscellaneous expenses was the result of staff expenses resulting from the higher level of activity.
4.
Promotion and travel: An increase of $31,769 or 234%. This increase resulted from the Company’s decision to increase awareness among Canadian investors of the changes, which were occurring within the structure of the Company and its operations. Investor meetings were conducted informing people of the name change, share re-organization (roll-back) and increased activity on the mineral properties.
5.
Salaries and benefits: An increase of $23,653 or 157%. This increase resulted from the slightly large staff necessitated by the increased corporate activity.
The Company spent $558,655 during Fiscal 2003 on its mineral properties as compared to $118,931 during Fiscal 2002. The expenses for each fiscal year are outlined below:

Critical Accounting Policies
Management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On a regular basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The significant US GAAP versus Canadian GAAP accounting policies that are most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating reported financial results include: the expensing of mineral property acquisition/exploration costs and accounting for stock-based compensation.
The Company capitalizes mineral property acquisition/exploration/development costs until the property is placed into production, sold, allowed to lapse or otherwise abandoned. All mineral property acquisition, exploration and development costs have been acquired for cash and/or common-voting shares. The company performs periodic evaluations to evaluate recoverability of mineral property costs. Under US GAAP, for exploration stage properties, all acquisition costs are capitalized in the period incurred subject to annual impairment assessment as set forth in SFAS 144 and EITF 04-03. Exploration costs are expensed in the period incurred.
For US GAAP purposes, the Company had elected under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) to continue to apply the intrinsic value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation under APB 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. Under the intrinsic value method, stock compensation is the excess, if any, of the quoted market value of the stock at the measured date of the grant over the amount an optionee must pay to acquire the stock. Under US GAAP, the issue of stock options to non-employees is accounted for under SFAS 123. The fair value of the stock options granted to non-employees will be estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following weighted-average assumptions: dividend yield; expected volatility; risk-free interest rate; and expected average option life. There were no stock options gra nted or outstanding during Fiscal 2002/2001/2000. The first calculation and footnote disclosure was adopted for Fiscal 2003 Ended January 31st.
58
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Applicable to Us
On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” which is a revision of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and amends SFAS 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values at the date of grant. Pro forma disclosure in the footnotes to financial statements is no longer an alternative. SFAS 123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods. The “modified prospective” method recognizes compensation expense based on the requirements of SFAS 123(R) for all share-based payments granted after the effective date, and based on the requirem ents of SFAS 123 for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123(R) that remain unvested on the effective date. The “modified retrospective” method includes the requirements of the modified prospective method described above, but also permits entities to restate their historical financial statements based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either for all prior periods presented, or for prior interim periods of the year of adoption. As of April 1, 2006, the Company adopted the “modified prospective” method under SFAS 123(R). As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) there are no differences between US and Canadian GAAP.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Non-Monetary Assets – An Amendment of APB 29”. This statement amends APB 29, which is based on the principle that exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured at the fair value of the assets exchanges with certain exceptions. SFAS No. 153 eliminates the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. This statement is effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting for Changes and Error Corrections - A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3”. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 154, a voluntary change in accounting principle requires retrospective application to prior period financial statements, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. A change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets must be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle. The guidance contained in APB No. 20 for reporting the correction of an error in previously issued financial statements and a change in accounting estimate was not changed. The Company will implement this new standard beginning January 1, 2006. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s fut ure reported financial position or results of operations.
59
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140”, to simplify and make more consistent the accounting for certain financial instruments. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, to permit fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument with an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, provided that the whole instrument is accounted for on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, to allow a qualifying special-purpose entity to hold a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No. 155 applies to all financial instruments acquired or issued after t he beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, with earlier application allowed. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". This statement requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and permits for subsequent measurement using either fair value measurement with changes in fair value reflected in earnings or the amortization and impairment requirements of Statement No. 140. The subsequent measurement of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value eliminates the necessity for entities that manage the risks inherent in servicing assets and servicing liabilities with derivatives to qualify for hedge accounting treatment and eliminates the characterization of declines in fair value as impairments or d irect write-downs. SFAS No. 156 is effective for an entity's first fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006. This adoption of this statement is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.
In April 2005, the Accounting Standards Board issued CICA Handbook Section 3855,Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement, along with two companion standards, Section 1530,Comprehensive Income, and Section 3865,Hedges. These sections will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year starting April 1, 2007. The Company does not expect that these changes will have a material impact on the Company’s reconciliation with U.S. GAAP.

Stock Options.
Description of the Company’s Stock Option Plan:
At the Company’s annual general meeting held on November 29, 2006, shareholders approved to renew the Incentive Share Option Plan (the “Plan”) in order to provide incentive to employees, management and others who provide services to the Company to act in the best interest of the Company.
Pursuant to the Plan, the Issuer has authorized the reservation of up to 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Issuer for the grant of options from time to time. Under the Plan, the Board may from time to time grant to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Issuer, as the Board shall designate, options to purchase from the Issuer such number of common shares of the Board shall designate. Some of the significant terms of the Plan are as follows.
1.
Options may be granted on authorized but unissued common shares up to but not exceeding 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Issuer at the time of any such grant of options.
65
2.
The total number of common shares to be reserved for issuance over the previous twelve month period for any optionee shall not exceed 5% of the issued common shares of the Issuer at the time of grant with the exception that, as long as the Issuer’s common shares are listed on Tier 2 of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”), the total number of common shares that may be reserved for issuance over the previous twelve months period for individuals engaged in an investor relations capacity shall not exceed 2% of the issued common shares of the Issuer at the time of grant. In addition, the total number of common shares to be reserved for issuance over the previous twelve-month period for any one consultant, shall not exceed 2% of the issued common shares of the Issuer at the time of grant.
3.
While the Issuer’s common shares are listed on the TSX-V, the purchase price per common share for any option granted under the Plan shall not be less than the discounted market price of the Issuer’s common shares in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V. At such time as the Issuer’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) the purchase price per common share for any option granted under the Plan shall be not less than the fair market value in accordance with the policies of the TSX.
4.
Options granted must expire not later than a maximum of five years from the date of the grant while the Issuer’s common shares are listed on Tier 2 of the TSX-V. At such time as the Issuer’s common shares are listed on Tier 1 of the TSX-V or the TSX options granted must expire not later than a maximum of ten years from the date of grant.
5.
Options will vest at the option of the board of directors.
6.
All options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be non-assignable and non-transferable.
7.
Subject to the receipt of disinterested shareholder approval for the grant of options under the Plan, the Plan will allow:

The TSX Venture Exchange
The TSX Venture Exchange is a result of the acquisition by the Toronto Stock Exchange of the Canadian Venture Exchange (“CDNX”) from its member firms on 8/1/2001. The CDNX resulted from the merger between the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the Alberta Stock Exchange that took place on 11/29/1999, to form the CDNX. The TSX Venture Exchange currently operates as a complementary but independent exchange from its parent, the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The initial roster of the CDNX was made up of venture companies previously listed on the Vancouver Stock Exchange or the Alberta Stock Exchange and later incorporated junior listings from the Montreal Stock Exchange, the Winnipeg Stock Exchange, and the CDN Over-The-Counter Market. The TSX Venture Exchange is a venture market as compared to the Toronto Stock Exchange that is Canada’s senior market and the Montreal Exchange that is Canada’s market for derivatives products.
70
The TSX Venture Exchange currently has five service centers: Calgary, Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg and Montreal. These service centers provide corporate finance, surveillance and marketing expertise. The corporate office for the TSX Venture Exchange is located in Calgary and the operations office is located in Vancouver.
The TSX Venture Exchange is a self-regulating organization owned and operated by the Toronto Stock Exchange, which in turn is owned by its member brokerage firms. Representatives of member firms and the public govern it.
Organizationally, the TSX Venture Exchange is comprised of seven business areas: Corporate Finance Services, Trading Services and Market Information Services, Compliance, Marketing, Technology, Corporate Affairs and Human Resources.
The TSX Venture Exchange acts as a business link between TSX members, listed companies and investors. TSX Venture Exchange policies and procedures are designed to accommodate companies still in their formative stages and recognize those that are more established. Listings are predominately small and medium sized companies.
The Canadian Investor Protection Fund (“CIPF”) protects investors in Canada. The CIPF is a private trust fund established to protect customers in the event of the insolvency of a member of any of the following self-regulatory organizations: the TSX Venture Exchange; the Montreal Exchange; the Toronto Stock Exchange; the Toronto Futures Exchange; and the Investment Dealers Association of Canada.
Post-trade monitoring of market activity occurs in the market surveillance department. Sophisticated software analyses trade data from TRADETSX to detect possible market improprieties. A variety of surveillance and investigative tools allow the TSX Venture Exchange to perform electronic market monitoring and trade reviews.
The surveillance department is also responsible for monitoring and reviewing listed company activities and detecting breaches of the listing policies or the listing agreement. Market surveillance and listed company surveillance activities are closely coordinated.

According to the Company’s Articles, “There are no restrictions on the business of the Company.”
A Director shall disclose his interest in and not vote in respect of the approval of any contract or transaction with the Company in which he is interested, but he shall be counted in the quorum present at the meeting at which the vote is taken.

(a)
Borrow money in a manner and amount, on any security, from any source and upon any terms and conditions;
(b)
Issue bonds, debentures, and other debt obligations either outright or as security for any liability or obligation of the Company or any other person;

There are no age considerations pertaining to the retirement or non-retirement of directors. The Directors may remove from office a Director who is convicted of an indictable offense.
A Director shall not be required to hold a share in the capital of the Company as qualification for his office but shall be qualified as required by the BCA, to become or act as a Director.
A Director may hold any office or place of profit with the Company in conjunction with his office of Director for such period and on such terms as the Directors may determine and no Director or intended Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting with the Company. A Director or his firm may act in a professional capacity for the Company and he or his firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if he were not a Director.
Subject to provisions of the BCA, the Company shall indemnify a Director, or former Director, of the Company and the Company may indemnify a Director or former Director of a corporation of which the Company is or was a shareholder and the heirs and personal representatives of any such person against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, actually and reasonably incurred by him or them, by reason of his being or having been a Director of the Company or a director of such corporation, including any action brought by the Company or any such corporation. The Directors may cause the Company to indemnify any officer, employee or agent of the Company, or of a corporation of which the Company is or was a shareholder and his heirs and personal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses whatsoever incurred by him or them and resulting from his acting as an officer, employee or agent of the Company or such corporation. The Company shall indemnify the Secretary and Assistant Secretary of the Company and his heirs and legal representatives against all charges,
costs and expenses whatsoever incurred by them and arising out of the functions assigned to the Secretary by the BCA or the Company’s Articles. The failure of a Director or officer of the Company to comply with the provisions of the BCA or of the Articles shall not invalidate any indemnity to which he is entitled under the Articles.
All of the authorized common shares of the Company are of the same class and, once issued, rank equally as to dividends, voting powers, and participation in assets. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be acted upon by the shareholders. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, out of funds legally available therefore.

74
Provisions as to the modification, amendment or variation of such shareholder rights or provisions are contained in the BCA. Unless the BCA or the Company's Articles otherwise provide, any action to be taken by a resolution of the members may be taken by an ordinary resolution or by a vote of a majority or more of the shares represented at the shareholders' meeting.

In default of the meeting being held, the meeting shall be called by any two members in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which meetings are to be called by the Directors.
The Directors may, whenever they think fit, convene a general meeting. A general meeting, if requisitioned in accordance with the BCA, shall be convened by the Directors or, if not convened by the Directors, may be convened by a group as provided in the BCA.
Not less than 21 days’ notice of any general meeting specifying the time and place of meeting and in case of special business, the general nature of that business shall be given in the manner mentioned in Article 10.4, or in such other manner, if any, as may be prescribed by ordinary resolution whether previous notice has been given or not, to any person as may by law or under the Articles or other regulations of the Company entitled to receive the notice from the Company. But the accidental omission to give notice of any meeting to, or the non-receipt of any notice, by any person shall not invalidate any proceedings at that meeting.
Persons entitled to notice of a general meeting may waive or reduce the period of notice convening the meeting, by unanimous consent in writing, and may give such waiver before, during or after the meeting.
There are no limitations on the rights to own securities.
There is no provision of the Company’s articles of association, charter or bylaws that would have an effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving the Company (or any of its subsidiaries).

10.C. Material Contracts
A Management Agreement with Seamus Young, dated 2/1/2002 and updated January 2006.
10.D. Exchange Controls
Canada has no system of exchange controls. There are no Canadian restrictions on the repatriation of capital or earnings of a Canadian public company to non-resident investors. There are no laws in Canada or exchange restrictions affecting the remittance of dividends, profits, interest, royalties and other payments to non-resident holders of the Company's securities, except as discussed in ITEM 10, ”Taxation" below.
Restrictions on Share Ownership by Non-Canadians.
There are no limitations under the laws of Canada or in the organizing documents of the Company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote securities of the Company, except that the Investment Canada Act may require review and approval by the Minister of Industry (Canada) of certain acquisitions of "control" of the Company by a "non-Canadian". The threshold for acquisitions of control is generally defined as being one-third or more of the voting shares of the Company. "Non-Canadian" generally means an individual who is not a Canadian citizen, or a corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture that is ultimately controlled by non-Canadians.
10.E. Taxation
Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following is a brief summary of some of the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences to a holder of the common-voting shares of the Company (a "U.S. Holder") who deals at arm's length with the Company, holds the shares as capital property and who, for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Act") and the Canada – United States Income Tax Convention (the "Treaty"), is at all relevant times resident in the United States, is not and is not deemed to be resident in Canada and does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold the shares in carrying on a business in Canada. Special rules, which are not discussed below, may apply to a U.S. Holder that is an insurer that carries on business in Canada and elsewhere.
This summary is of a general nature only and is not, and should not be interpreted as, legal or tax advice to any particular U.S. Holder and no representation is made with respect to the Canadian income tax consequences to any particular person. Accordingly, U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to their particular circumstances.
Under the Act and the Treaty, a U.S. Holder of the common-voting shares will generally be subject to a 15% withholding tax on dividends paid or credited or deemed by the Act to have been paid or credited on such shares. The withholding tax rate is 5% where the U.S. Holder is a corporation that beneficially owns at least 10% of the voting shares of the Company and the dividends may be exempt from such withholding in the case of some U.S. Holders such as qualifying pension funds and charities.
76
In general, a U.S. Holder will not be subject to Canadian income tax on capital gains arising on the disposition of shares of the Company unless (i) at any time in the five-year period immediately preceding the disposition, 25% or more of the shares of any class or series of the capital stock of the Company was owned by (or was under option of or subject to an interest of) the U.S. holder or persons with whom the U.S. holder did not deal at arm's length, and (ii) the value of the common-voting shares of the Company at the time of the disposition derives principally from real property (as defined in the Treaty) situated in Canada. For this purpose, the Treaty defines real property situated in Canada to include rights to explore for or exploit mineral deposits and other natural resources situated in Canada, rights to amounts computed by reference to the amount or value of production from such resources, certain other r ights in respect of natural resources situated in Canada and shares of a corporation the value of whose shares is derived principally from real property situated in Canada.
The US Internal Revenue Code provides special anti-deferral rules regarding certain distributions received by US persons with respect to, and sales and other dispositions (including pledges) of stock of, a passive foreign investment company. A foreign corporation, such as the Company, will be treated as a passive foreign investment company if 75% or more of its gross income is passive income for a taxable year or if the average percentage of its assets (by value) that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income is at least 50% for a taxable year. The Company believes that it was not a passive foreign investment company for the taxable year ended January 31, 2003 and, furthermore, expects to conduct its affairs in such a manner so that it will not meet the criteria to be considered passive foreign investment company in the foreseeable future.
Dividends
A Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax ("Part XIII Tax") equal to 25%, or such lower rate as may be available under an applicable tax treaty, of the gross amount of any dividend paid or deemed to be paid on common shares. Under the Canada-U.S. Income Tax Convention (1980) as amended by the Protocols signed on 6/14/1983, 3/28/1984, 3/17/1995, and 7/29/1997 (the "Treaty"), the rate of Part XIII Tax applicable to a dividend on common shares paid to a Holder who is a resident of the United States and who is the beneficial owner of the dividend, is 5%. If the Holder is a company that owns at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company paying the dividend, and, in all other cases, the tax rate is 15% of the gross amount of the dividend. The Company will be required to withhold the applicable amount of Part XIII Tax from each dividend so paid and remit the withheld amount directly to the Receiver Genera l for Canada for the account of the Holder.
77
Disposition of Common Shares
A Holder who disposes of a common share, including by deemed disposition on death, will not normally be subject to Canadian tax on any capital gain (or capital loss) thereby realized unless the common share constituted "taxable Canadian property" as defined by theTax Act. Generally, a common share of a public corporation will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Holder if the share is listed on a prescribed stock exchange unless the Holder or persons with whom the Holder did not deal at arm's length alone or together held or held options to acquire, at any time within the five years preceding the disposition, 25% or more of the shares of any class of the capital stock of the Company. The Canadian Venture Exchange is a prescribed stock exchange under theTax Act. A Holder who is a resident of the United States and realizes a capital gain on a disposition of a common share that was taxable Canadian property will nevertheless, by virtue of the Treaty, generally be exempt from Canadian tax thereon unless (a) more than 50% of the value of the common shares is derived from, or from an interest in, Canadian real estate, including Canadian mineral resource properties, (b) the common share formed part of the business property of a permanent establishment that the Holder has or had in Canada within the 12 month period preceding the disposition, or (c) the Holder is an individual who (i) was a resident of Canada at any time during the 10 years immediately preceding the disposition, and for a total of 120 months during any period of 20 consecutive years, preceding the disposition, and (ii) owned the common share when he ceased to be resident in Canada.
A Holder who is subject to Canadian tax in respect of a capital gain realized on a disposition of a common share must include three quarters of the capital gain (taxable capital gain) in computing the Holder's taxable income earned in Canada. The Holder may, subject to certain limitations, deduct three-quarters of any capital loss (allowable capital loss) arising on a disposition of taxable Canadian property from taxable capital gains realized in the year of disposition in respect to taxable Canadian property and, to the extent not so deductible, from such taxable capital gains realized in any of the three preceding years or any subsequent year.
United States Taxation
For federal income tax purposes, an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States or a domestic corporation ("U.S. Taxpayer") will recognize a gain or loss on the sale of the Company's common-voting shares equal to the difference between the proceeds from such sale and the adjusted tax basis of the common-voting shares. The gain or loss will be a capital gain or capital loss if the Company's common-voting shares are a capital asset in U.S. Taxpayer's hands.
For federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Taxpayer will be required to include in gross income dividends received on the Company's common-voting shares. A U.S. Taxpayer who pays Canadian tax on a dividend on common shares will be entitled, subject to certain limitations, to a credit (or alternatively, a deduction) against federal income tax liability. A domestic corporation that owns at least 10% of the voting shares should consult its tax advisor as to applicability of the deemed paid foreign tax credit with respect to dividends paid on the Company's common shares.

Under a number of circumstances, United States Investor acquiring shares of the Company may be required to file an information return with the Internal Revenue Service Center where they are required to file their tax returns with a duplicate copy to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Philadelphia, PA 19255. In particular, any United States Investor who becomes the owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the shares of the Company will be required to file such a return. Other filing requirements may apply, and United States Investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning these requirements.
The US Internal Revenue Code provides special anti-deferral rules regarding certain distributions received by US persons with respect to, and sales and other dispositions (including pledges) of stock of, a passive foreign investment company. A foreign corporation, such as the Company, will be treated as a passive foreign investment company if 75% or more of its gross income is passive income for a taxable year or if the average percentage of its assets (by value) that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income is at least 50% for a taxable year. The Company believes that it was not a passive foreign investment company for the taxable year ended 1/31/2003 and, furthermore, expects to conduct its affairs in such a manner so that it will not meet the criteria to be considered passive foreign investment company in the foreseeable future.
10.F. Dividends and Paying Agents
The Company has not declared any dividends on its common shares for the last five years and does not anticipate that it will do so in the foreseeable future. The present policy of the Company is to retain future earnings for use in its operations and the expansion of its business.
Notwithstanding the aforementioned: the Company is unaware of any dividend restrictions; has no specific procedure for the setting of the date of dividend entitlement; but might expect to set a record date for stock ownership to determine entitlement; has no specific procedures for non-resident holders to claim dividends, but might expect to mail their dividends in the same manner as resident holders. The Company has not nominated any financial institutions to be the potential paying agents for dividends in the United States.

Reserve:That part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission requires a final or full Feasibility Study to support either Proven or Probable Reserves and does not recognize other classifications of mineralized deposits. | Mineral Reserve:The economically mineable part of a Measured or Indicated Mineral Resource demonstrated by at least a Preliminary Feasibility study. This study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction can be justified. |
|
|
Proven (Measured) Reserves: Reserves for which a quantity is computed from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; grade and/or quality are computed from the results of detailed sampling and measurement are spaced so closely and the geologic character is so well defined that size, share, depth, and mineral content of reserves are well established. | Proven Mineral Reserve:The economically mineable part of a Measured Mineral Resource demonstrated by at least a Preliminary Feasibility study. This study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction is justified. |
|
|
Probable (Indicated) Reserves:For which quantity and grade and/or quality are computed from information similar to that used for proven (measured) reserves, but the sites for inspection, sampling and measurement are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for proven (measured) reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation. | Probable Mineral Reserve:The economically mineable part of an indicated, and in some circumstances, a Measured Mineral Resource, demonstrated by at least a Preliminary Feasibility Study. This study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction can be justified. |
