EVOLVING GOLD CORP. |
(A Pre-Exploration Stage Company) |
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
(Prepared without audit) |
For the six months ended September 30, 2005 |
(Stated in Canadian Dollars) |
Note 1 | Nature and Continuance of Operations |
Evolving Gold Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on June 19, 2003, under the Canada Business Corporation Act and is in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral properties. At September 30, 2005, the Company was in the pre-exploration stage and had interests in mineral properties located in the Northwest Territories, Labrador and Nevada, United States of America.
The recoverability of amounts shown for mineral properties is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company’s interest in the underlying mineral claims, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete their development, and future profitable production or disposition thereof.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. As at September 30, 2005, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $59,050, has yet to achieve profitable operations and has accumulated losses of $932,750 since inception. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time and raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Note 2 | Significant Accounting Policies |
The interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada, using the same accounting policies and methods as per the annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2005. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial statements of the Company. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates, which have been made using careful judgement. Actual results may vary from these estimates.

Note 5 | Share Capital (continued) |
The Company established a share purchase option plan (the “Plan”) in September 2004. The Board of Directors administers the Plan, pursuant to which the Board of Directors may grant from time to time incentive stock options up to an aggregate maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company to directors, officers, employees, consultants or advisors. All options granted under the Plan shall expire not later than the fifth anniversary of the date the options were granted
The exercise price of an option is determined by the Board of Directors, but shall not be less than the market price of the common shares of the Company on the CNQ on the last business day before the date on which the options are granted, less any discount permitted by the rules of the exchange. Vesting and terms are at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
During the six month period ended September 30, 2005, 185,000 options were granted to a director and officer of the company exercisable at $0.82 per share and 150,000 additional options were granted to a consultant exercisable at $0.65 per share. Compensation costs of stock options granted under the Plan have been estimated using an option-pricing model. Assumptions used in the pricing model are as follows:
| Average risk-free interest rate | 3.42% to 4.0% |
| Expected life | 5.0 years |
| Expected volatility | 110% to 155% |
| Expected dividends | Nil |
The granted options were accounted for using the fair value-based methodology. Accordingly $198,900 was recorded as contributed surplus and charged to the statement of loss and deficit.
Note 6 | Related Party Transactions |
For the six months ended September 30, 2005, deferred exploration costs include geological consulting fees of $25,000 and consulting fees include $25,000 charged to the company by a director.
