1.	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business - Blacksands Petroleum, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 12, 2004 as Lam Liang Corp. The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation on June 9, 2006 to change its name from “Lam Liang Corp.” to “Blacksands Petroleum, Inc.” On August 3, 2007, the Company completed its purchase of 75% of the capital of Access Energy Inc. (“Access” or “Access Energy”), and entered the unconventional petroleum industry by acquiring a suitable target company. The Company currently operates in only one segment – unconventional oil and gas exploration – in Canada.

Significant Accounting Policies - These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), interim financial information with instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S_X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) that have been made are necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as at January 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the three month periods ended January 31, 2009 and 2008, and its cash flows for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008.

Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended October 31, 2008 included in the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on February 20, 2009. The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in note 1 of the consolidated financial statements which are included in the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Going Concern - These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States on a “going concern” basis, which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The Company is in the process of exploring resource properties and has not yet determined whether the properties contain economically recoverable reserves. The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from its operating activities for the period ended January 31, 2009, and for the year ended October 31, 2008, and since inception.

The Company’s management continues to focus on the exploration, delineation, and ultimate exploitation of bitumen on the lands in northern Saskatchewan and Alberta, and completion of the acquisition of surface rights with the La Loche Clearwater Development Authority to explore the traditional lands of La Loche in northwestern Saskatchewan.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, obtaining additional financing to develop the properties, the ultimate realization of profits through future production or sale of properties, and the success of the Company’s business plan. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its business.

1.	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under US GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) SFAS 157-2 which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. These nonfinancial items include assets and liabilities such as reporting units measured at fair value in a goodwill impairment test, asset retirement obligations and nonfinancial assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. In October 2008, the FASB also issued FSP SFAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active,” which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in an inactive market, and illustrates how an entity would determine fair value when the market for a financial asset is not active.

Adoption of this Standard includes increased disclosure such as:

- The fair value measurements recorded during the period and the reasons for the measurements

- The level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall, segregating fair value measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3);

- For fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a description of the inputs and the information used to develop the inputs; and,

- In annual periods only, the valuation technique(s) used to measure fair value and a discussion of changes, if any, in the valuation technique(s) use to measure similar assets and/or liabilities in prior periods.

Effective November 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities. The partial adoption of SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. See Note 7 for information and related disclosures.

Beginning November 1, 2009, the Company will adopt the provisions for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not required or permitted to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which include those measured at fair value in goodwill impairment testing, indefinite-lived intangible assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment, nonfinancial long-lived assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment, asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value, and those initially measured at fair value in a business combination. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS No. 157 related to these items to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

1.	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (SFAS 159), “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. SFAS 159 permits entities to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many financial assets and liabilities. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement applies to all entities. Most of the provisions of this Statement apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. Entities electing the fair value option would be required to recognize changes in fair value in earnings and are required to distinguish on the face of the balance sheet the fair value of assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument (with a few exceptions); is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs); and is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”.

However, the amendment to SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. The fair value option permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates.

SFAS 159 was adopted by the Company on November 1, 2008. The adjustment to reflect the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount would be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the date of initial adoption. The adoption of SFAS 159 on November 1, 2008 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. There are no assets or liabilities that the Company has chosen to measure at fair value other than short-term investments which it has already been measuring at fair value.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Management has determined that there are no other new accounting pronouncements, other than those described in the Company’s Form 10-K at October 31, 2008, that will impact the Company.

2.	OIL AND GAS PROPERTY COSTS

In the quarter ended January 31, 2009, and the year ended October 31, 2008, the Company incurred property acquisition costs as follows:

	January 31, 2009	October 31, 2008
Balance, beginning of year	$ 3,685,522	$ 4,626,809

Costs incurred during the period	1,996	67,700
Exchange adjustments	(66,021)	(1,008,987)

Balance, end of period	$ 3,621,497	$ 3,685,522

3.	STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND LOSS PER SHARE CALCULATION

There are 1,500,000 Warrants outstanding, which were issued as part of the consideration for the purchase of the subsidiary, Access Energy. Referred to as the “Access Warrants”, each of these 1,500,000 Access Warrants is exercisable for five years commencing August 3, 2007 and entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at $2.00 per share. The Access Warrants were granted in consideration for the future acquisition of an additional project other than the A10 Project, which, at the time of the acquisition of Access, and to January 31, 2009, had not been secured. The Access Warrants do not vest until Access secures an additional project. If and when an additional project is secured, and assuming the Access Warrants have not expired, they will be considered to have vested and we will determine and record the value of the Access Warrants accordingly using the Black-Scholes method. At the time of vesting, we will record the fair value of the Access Warrants as a charge to stock-based compensation expense and a credit to Additional Paid-In Capital. (See note 8).

Loss per share calculation

	January 31, 2009	January 31, 2008	Inception to January 31, 2009
Net loss	$230,144	$285,859	$5,068,322
Weighted Average Number of shares outstanding, basic and diluted	44,854,700	44,854,700	51,217,739
Loss per share, basic and diluted	$(0.01)	$(0.01)	$(0.10)

The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the period ended January 31, 2009, 1,500,000 options and warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the period ended January 31, 2008, there were 14,054,700 options and warrants excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. From October 12, 2004 (inception) to date, there are 1,500,000 options and warrants excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

6.	COMMITMENTS

There was no significant change in the Company’s commitments during the quarter ending January 31, 2009. See also Note 8 – Subsequent Event.

7.	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments recognized in the balance sheet consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and accounts payable with related parties. The estimated fair values of the financial instruments have been determined based on the Company’s assessment of available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies; however, these estimates may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts that could be realized or settled in a market transaction. The fair values of financial instruments generally approximate their book amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments at January 31, 2009 and October 31, 2008. The Company has no derivative instruments.

SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels. Level 1 inputs on the hierarchy consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and have the highest priority. Level 2 and 3 inputs have lower priorities. The Company uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair values of assets and liabilities, as needed. When available, the Company measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities whose fair value is measured using these methods.

8.	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

LA LOCHE CLEARWATER DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

On October 15, 2008, Access signed a Joint Venture Agreement and an Impact Benefit Agreement (the “Agreements”) with La Loche Clearwater Development Authority. The Agreements were subject to the ratification by the aboriginal residents of the area (the La Loche “Community”) before they were effective. On February 14, 2009, the Community ratified the Joint Venture Agreement and the Impact Benefit Agreement signed by Access and the La Loche Clearwater Development Authority (“LLCDA”) on October 15, 2008.

The Agreements allow Access to exclusively participate in the acquisition, exploration and development of certain surface and subsurface rights in and to approximately 3,000,000 hectares of La Loche Traditional Lands in north western Saskatchewan, north and west of the town of La Loche, Saskatchewan.

The terms of the Agreements are for twenty years from the date of signing (October 15, 2008), and automatically renew for consecutive terms of twenty years if Access provides notice of renewal to LLCDA before the expiration of the Agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreements, Access paid Cdn$15,000 (approximately US$12,225) on the signing of the Agreements, and is obligated to pay to the LLCDA Cdn$75,000 (approximately US$61,150) at the start of each three-month period upon ratification of the Agreements (or Cdn$300,000 annually – approximately $244,600). As well, Access is obligated to pay a 5% gross overriding royalty to LLCDA from the production of any Products.

With the ratification of the Joint Venture Agreement and Impact Benefit Agreement between Access and LLCDA, Access is considered to have secured another project, and the 1,500,000 “Access Warrants” referred to in note 3 have vested, and will be accounted for in the year ended October 31, 2009.

8.	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (continued)

SALE OF SIGNIFICANT HOLDING OF ACCESS ENERGY INC.

On April 30, 2009, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had approved an agreement in principle to sell two-thirds of its interest in Access Energy to the other stockholder of Access Energy, Mr. Reg Burden. The sale is subject to Blacksands’ stockholder approval at the next annual general meeting.

Following the transfer, Blacksands would hold 25% of the outstanding Access shares and Mr. Burden would hold 75%.

As consideration for the transfer, the Company would be relieved of its contractual obligation to fund Access’ annual plan and budget including Access’ commitments to First Nations’ communities, Mr. Burden would pay Blacksands nominal consideration, and Mr. Burden’s warrants to purchase the Access Warrants would be cancelled.

The Company expects to close the sale of the Access shares, subject to completion of documentation and receipt of Blacksands’ shareholder approval, as soon as practicable following the Blacksands’ shareholder meeting.

Management has assessed the impact of the April 30, 2009 announcement on the Company’s financial position and results of operation and determined that the Company’s oil and gas property costs capitalized have been impaired and will be written down to a nominal amount effective April 30, 2009.

CANCELLATION OF APPROVAL FOR STOCK OPTION GRANTS

On April 30, 2009, the Company announced that the Board of Directors rescinded its February 15, 2008 approval of the granting of stock options to directors, officers and consultants to the Company for options representing 2.2 million shares. These options, described in note 3, have not yet been granted and were pending the approval of the amended 2008 Company Stock Option Plan by the stockholders at the Company’s next annual general meeting. With the decision to rescind the Board’s prior approval of the granting, the Company will have no stock options granted or to be granted when the amended 2008 Company Stock Option Plan is approved by the stockholders.

1-FOR-3 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

Also on April 30, 2009, the Company announced that it plans to seek stockholder approval for a reverse split of its Common Stock at its next annual general meeting, which it currently anticipates will be a 1-for-3 split. If the reverse stock split is approved by stockholders, each holder of the Company’s Common Stock on the effective date of the reverse stock split will be entitled to receive one share of new Common Stock in exchange for every three shares of old Common Stock held by such holder. The Company’s authorized Common Stock would be similarly reduced.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Certain statements in this report, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. A detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K under the heading “Risk Factors and Uncertainties” (see Part 1, Item 1 in such report), as amended as needed in this report under the heading “Risk Factors” (see Part II, Item 1A). We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this report to “Blacksands”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” refer to both Blacksands and Access. In our consolidated financial statements, this management’s discussion and analysis and elsewhere in this report, unless otherwise noted, we include 100% of the accounts of Access from the date of acquisition of August 3, 2007. For a discussion of our principles of consolidation, see Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 20, 2009. The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors, which have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and it should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended January 31, 2009 as well as our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2008.

On August 3, 2007, we completed the purchase of 75% of Access Energy Inc. (“Access”) for cash of US$3,234,545 and 1,500,000 warrants to purchase shares of our common stock issued to the former sole stockholder of Access. We expect that the Purchase will cause our plan of operation, results of operations and capital resources to differ materially from our financial position as it existed prior to the Purchase. Pursuant to the Unanimous Shareholders’ Agreement among Access, the Company and the minority shareholder in Access, Blacksands is now responsible for funding 100% of Access’ operations including general and administration, and all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration and development, until such time as Access is self-sufficient. These contributions are treated as a contribution of capital, with no increase in our current 75% equity participation in Access. Therefore, all contributions that we make to Access are dilutive to our shareholders as to 25% of such contributions. The minority shareholder is not obligated to provide any funding to Access in order to maintain his 25% interest in Access.

Subsequent to the Purchase, Access has commenced activities to obtain the permits, licenses and sub-surface rights necessary to begin our exploration activities.

(See Note 8 – Subsequent Events - for information about an April 30, 2009 news release by the Company with respect to its investment in Access).

The A10 Project

The initial exploration project for Access is named “A10 Project” and lies on a portion of the traditional land of the Buffalo River Dene Nation (the “BRDN”) subject to Treaty 10 (“Treaty 10”) in western Saskatchewan on the border with Alberta (the “Project Land”). The BRDN is a party to Treaty 10 with Her Majesty the Queen in the Right of Canada (the “Crown”) which recognizes lands and water belonging to the BRDN whose territory is situated partly in the Province of Saskatchewan and partly in the Province of Alberta. Upon entering into Treaty 10, the BRDN did not cede, release, surrender or yield to the Crown any or all rights, titles and privileges whatsoever to the BRDN’s traditional territories. Lands and waters described in Treaty 10 form a part of the traditional territories of the BRDN. Access signed the Joint Venture Agreement with the Buffalo River Dene Development Corp. (“BRDDC”) in

November 2006, amended on May 18, 2007, and further amended on March 17, 2008, granting Access exclusive access to the land.

On May 24, 2007, our representatives and those from Access and the BRDN attended a signing ceremony for the Impact/Benefit Agreement signed by the BRDN and the A10 Project - further amended on March 17, 2008.

The Impact/Benefit Agreement (and its amendment of March 17, 2008, collectively referred to as the Impact/Benefit Agreement or “IBA”) sets forth the framework for several obligations of Access in favor of the BRDN. The term of the Impact/Benefit Agreement will be for a period of twenty (20) years from the date of execution. The parties agree that one year prior to the expiration of the initial term, A10 Project will initiate a review of the Impact/Benefit Agreement with the BRDN. Either party may terminate the Impact/Benefit Agreement by providing the other party with 30 days’ notice of an intention to terminate.

Pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement, the Company is responsible for 100% of the costs to explore and develop any project within the traditional lands. After all costs relating to a specific project have been recouped, the Company will retain a 90% interest and the BRDDC will be entitled to the remaining minority interest of the Project. Furthermore, the BRDDC is entitled to earn up to an additional 20% interest in any project(s) by contributing its pro rata share of the costs to explore and develop any project(s). Even if the BRDDC chooses to participate to the full extent permitted by the JV Agreement, the Company would continue to hold a majority of the working interest in the project.

In addition, under the Impact/Benefit Agreement with the BRDN and its amendment, the Company is committed to make certain contributions to the BRDN on or before May 24 of every year for capacity and infrastructure building and for reimbursement of costs for traditional lands staffing and to support training and development of the BRDN community in the range of Cdn$1,000,000 to Cdn$1,300,000 per year. Additionally, the Company is committed to expend up to Cdn$1,000,000 to assist BRDN forestry contractors to transition to approved contractors for the A10 Project. Finally, the Company is committed to providing a loan of up to Cdn$5,000,000 to assist the BRDDC to fund an increase in ownership of the A10 Project from the current 10% interest to up to 30% interest when production is to commence. All amounts paid or advanced are potentially recoverable as part of the Company’s earned working interest in the A10 Project.

On December 3, 2008, the Company, through its subsidiary, Access, submitted bids for the oilsands exploratory permits covering approximately 810,000 acres of the A10 Project lands that were posted for sale by the Province of Saskatchewan (the “Province”). The Province of Saskatchewan subsequently announced that there were no successful bidders for these oilsands exploratory permits.

As at January 31, 2009, the Company had paid or accrued a total of approximately Cdn$2,098,500 (approximately US$1,710,965) to the BRDN and is committed to further payments totalling in the aggregate of approximately Cdn$25,000,000 over the term of the agreement which expires in 2027.

The La Loche Project

On February 14, 2009, the Community ratified the Joint Venture Agreement and the Impact Benefit Agreement signed by Access and the La Loche Clearwater Development Authority (“LLCDA”) on October 15, 2008.

The Agreements cover approximately 3,000,000 hectares of La Loche Traditional Lands (the “Traditional Lands”) in north western Saskatchewan, north and west of the town of La Loche, Saskatchewan. They allow Access to exclusively participate in the acquisition, exploration and development of certain surface and subsurface rights in and to the Traditional Lands with respect to petroleum and mining products (the “Products”).

the start of each three-month period upon ratification of the Agreements (or Cdn$300,000 annually – approximately US$244,600). As well, Access is obligated to pay a 5% gross overriding royalty to LLCDA from the production of any Products.

Current Assets	$	3,226,503	$	3,558,133

Consolidated Results of Operations

For the period ended January 31, 2009, and since our inception on October 12, 2004, we have not generated any revenue.

We incurred total operating expenses of $238,621 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009, as compared to total operating expenses of $760,744 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008. These expenses consisted of general operating expenses incurred in connection with the day-to-day operations of our business and the preparation and filing of our periodic reports, and costs associated with exploration activities for our 75% owned subsidiary, Access Energy Inc.

The significant operating expenses include professional fees of $132,062 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 incurred in connection with filing of periodic reports, SEC compliance filings, legal, audit and accounting fees, and general corporate matters as compared with professional fees of $141,879 for the comparative quarter of January 31, 2008. The office and administration expenses of $39,186 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 include rent, telephone and other office expenses, net of recovered Canadian Goods and Services Tax, as compared to office and administration expenses of $56,315 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009. The management and directors’ fees of $61,207 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 includes the directors’ fee and Coniston’s management fee, compared to management and directors’ fees of $89,741 for the comparative quarter.

During the quarter ended January 31, 2009, we incurred exploration expenses of $6,166 compared to exploration expenses of $471,271 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008, with the difference being largely a function of timing of payments to the BRDN for the A10 Project. The exploration expenses include costs associated with maintaining the Company’s interest in the A10 Project as well as costs to investigate the acquisition of additional projects which are not expected to yield a new acquisition project for the Company.

We earned total interest income of $19,715 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009, as compared to total interest income of $52,584 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008. The interest for the quarters ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 was earned from the investment of proceeds of a private placement of our common stock and common stock purchase warrants in 2006, which remained in interest bearing instruments during the above periods, and which balance has diminished since the acquisition of Access in August 2007 with ongoing operations. Declining interest rates as well as a reduced balance of interest bearing instruments has reduced our interest income.

We recorded expense of $27,778 in the quarter ended January 31, 2009 as funding on behalf of the minority stockholder (represents a charge to the Company for 25% of capital advanced to Access in February 2008, and used by Access in the quarter). There was no amount recorded in the comparative quarter of the prior year.

The minority interest amount of $14,521 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 represents 25% share of minority stockholders of Access of the losses incurred by Access from November 1, 2008 to January 31, 2009 (excluding

capital contribution to subsidiary on behalf of minority shareholder of $27,778 that is not recoverable from the minority shareholder) compared to a minority interest amount of $143,648 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008.

The gain from foreign currency exchange of $2,019 at January 31, 2009 arose as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate on US-denominated transactions in the quarter. The January 31, 2008 figure of $278,653 reflects foreign currency adjustments arising from having the majority of the Company’s cash and investments denominated in US dollars while its functional currency is the Canadian dollar.

Our total comprehensive loss for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 was $354,491, compared to total comprehensive loss of $845,534 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008, and a total comprehensive loss of $5,856,389 from inception on October 12, 2004 to January 31, 2009.

Net cash used in operating activities was $194,127 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009, compared to $894,946 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008, reflecting a significant reduction in cash outflows for operations in the current quarter. The net cash used in operating activities was $4,575,783 for the period from inception on October 12, 2004 to January 31, 2009.

Net cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 was $1,805,476, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $10,967 for the quarter ended January 31, 2008 and $6,023,694 for the period from inception on October 12, 2004 to January 31, 2009. The majority of the net cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 was the investment of cash into short-term investments with original maturities greater than three months.

Cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 was $nil, as it was for the quarter ended January 31, 2008.

As of January 31, 2009, the combined companies had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $564,038, and short-term investments of $2,623,781. The Company believes this amount to be sufficient to fund the Company’s general and administrative costs for the next twelve months, and fund the work necessary to obtain permits, licenses and necessary approvals to commence exploration activities on the A10 Project, and as needed, for the La Loche Project. If the Company is successful in obtaining the permits, licenses and necessary approvals, it will require additional capital to carry out any additional exploration activities, and the funding may come through the exercising of outstanding warrants and/or through the raising of additional capital. In the interim, the Company is closely monitoring its cash balances and is minimizing its use of cash as much as possible.

The Company has incurred losses, and does not believe the Company has any tax liabilities for the years 2004 to 2008 inclusive. We have commissioned the preparation of the income tax returns and expect to have them completed and filed as soon as possible.

Critical Accounting Policies

Significant Accounting Policies - These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) that have been made are necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as at January 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the three month periods ended January 31, 2009 and 2008, and its cash flows for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008.

The note disclosure requirements of annual consolidated financial statements provide additional disclosures to those required for interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended October 31, 2008 included in the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on February 20, 2009. The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in note 1 of the consolidated financial statements which are included in the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties. Unproved oil and gas properties are periodically assessed and any impairment in value is charged to exploration expense. The costs of unproved properties, which are determined to be productive, are transferred to proved oil and gas properties and amortized on an equivalent unit-of-production basis. Exploratory expenses, including geological and geophysical expenses and delay rentals for unevaluated oil and gas properties, are charged to expense as incurred. Exploratory drilling costs are initially capitalized as unproved property but charged to expense if and when the well is determined not to have found proved oil and gas reserves. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 19, exploratory drilling costs are evaluated within a one-year period after the completion of drilling.

The carrying values of oil and gas property costs are reviewed periodically, when impairment factors exist, to determined whether they have been impaired. If impairment is deemed to exist, a loss is recognized by providing a valuation allowance. A write-down may be warranted in situations where a property/project is to be sold, abandoned; or exploration activity ceases on a property due to unsatisfactory results or insufficient available funding or inability to obtain oilsands exploration permits.

As of October 31, 2008, the Company has determined that there is no impairment of its oil and gas property costs based on current conditions, including consideration of the price of oil, the remaining length of time of the joint venture agreements, the availability of the oilsands exploratory permits, and the Company’s intentions to continue to focus on the exploration of the A10 Project and the La Loche Project.

The recoverability of amounts shown as oil and gas property costs is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the Company’s ability to obtain financing to develop the properties, and the ultimate realization of profits through future production or sale of properties. These and other uncertainties could adversely affect the future carrying value of oil and gas property costs.

For the quarter ended January 31, 2009, there was no significant change in any impairment factor, and the Company concluded there has been no impairment.

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”

Adoption of this Standard includes increased disclosure such as:

- The fair value measurements recorded during the period and the reasons for the measurements

- For fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a description of the inputs and the information used to develop the inputs; and,

New Accounting Pronouncements

Management has determined that there are no other new accounting pronouncements, other than those described in the Company’s Form 10-K at October 31, 2008, that will impact the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of January 31, 2009, the combined companies had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $564,038 and short-term investments of $2,623,781.

Revenues

Neither we, nor Access have had any revenue since our respective inceptions.

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities

The Company used $194,127 on operating activities, including approximately $6,200 on exploration activities in the quarter, compared to $894,946 for the comparative quarter which included $471,271 of oil and gas exploration costs and increased costs compared to the current quarter.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 was $nil, as it was for the quarter ended January 31, 2008.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

There are no significant changes to the Company’s contractual obligations other than those obligations under the ratified agreement with La Loche Clearwater Development Authority. See “The La Loche Project” above.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

While the Company’s reporting currency is U.S. dollars, the Company’s principal executive offices and its principal exploration property, the A10 Project, are located in Canada, and most of its contractual obligations are payable in Canadian dollars. For this reason, the Company is subject to Canada-U.S. exchange rate risk. The Company considers the amount of risk to be manageable and does not currently, nor is it likely in the foreseeable future to, conduct hedging to reduce its exchange rate risk. A hypothetical 10% increase in the value of one Canadian dollar expressed in U.S. dollars during the quarter ended January 31, 2009 would have caused an approximate $26,500 increase in the Company’s expenses for the quarter, and an equivalent decrease in the value of one Canadian dollar would have caused a $26,500 decrease in the Company’s expenses for the quarter. A hypothetical 10% increase in the value of one Canadian dollar expressed in U.S. dollars during the quarter ended January 31, 2009 would have caused an approximate $675,000 increase in the Company’s other comprehensive loss and a corresponding decrease in stockholders’ equity for the quarter, and an equivalent decrease in the value of one Canadian dollar would have caused a $675,000 decrease in the Company’s other comprehensive loss and a corresponding increase in stockholders’ equity for the quarter.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

At the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operations of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13(a) – 15(e) and Rule 15(d) – 15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation and in light of the discussion of the material weakness discussed below in the Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that: (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow for accurate and timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

More specifically, the material weakness relates to a lack of sufficient personnel with appropriate knowledge, experience and training in U.S. GAAP resulting in a lack of sufficient analysis and documentation of the application of U.S. GAAP to transactions, including but not limited to oil and gas accounting and foreign currency translation.

In efforts to address this material weakness, the Company has undertaken the following remedial actions: (i) providing additional training and education for our accounting staff with respect to U.S. GAAP; and (ii) consulting with external professional expertise on an earlier basis with respect to interpretation issues with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter and the period covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
