NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 2013
(Unaudited)
Note 1Interim Reporting
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012. The Company assumes that the users of the interim consolidated financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal period and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. Accordingly, footnote disclosure, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012, has been omitted. The results of operations for the six-month period ended May 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending November 30, 2013.
Note 2Nature of Operations and Going Concern
The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada, United States of America on November 1, 2006. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring exploration and development stage natural resource properties.
Effective December 28, 2006, the Board of Directors authorized a 3 for 1 forward stock split of the common shares. The authorized number of common shares increased from 90,000,000 to 270,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001. All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of common shares have been restated to reflect the forward stock split.
On February 12, 2008, the Company acquired 100% of the common shares of Force Energy Corp., an inactive company incorporated in Nevada on July 19, 2005, for $100, to effect a name change of the Company. On February 12, 2008, the Company and Force Energy Corp filed articles of merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effectuate a merger between the two companies. The surviving entity of the merger was the Company. Immediately thereafter the Company changed its name to Force Energy Corp.
On June 6, 2013, the Board of Directors changed the name of the Company to Force Minerals Corporation. Also on June 6, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a 100:1 reverse stock split of the common shares. The name change and reverse stock split received regulatory approval on June 28, 2013. The record date for the reverse stock split was June 14, 2013. The authorized number of common shares remained unchanged. All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of common shares have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next twelve months. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these consolidated 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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 2Nature of Operations and Going Concern – (cont’d)
At May 31, 2013, the Company has a working capital deficit of $331,432 . The Company has yet to achieve profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $4,201,683 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available or on acceptable terms, if at all.
Note 3Recent Developed Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date.The amendments in ASU 2013-04 provide guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this Update is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance in this Update also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations. The amendments in this standard is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-04 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.The amendments in ASU No. 2013-05 resolve the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall, or Subtopic 830-30, Foreign Currency Matters—Translation of Financial Statements, applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment ina foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) withina foreign entity. In addition, the amendments in this Update resolve the diversity in practice for the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages (sometimes also referred to as step acquisitions) involving a foreign entity. The amendments in this standard is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 4Financial Instruments and Risk Management
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

Note 4Financial Instruments and Risk Management(cont’d)
In addition to defining fair value, the standard expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs is expanded. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels and which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety
These levels are:
Level 1 - inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level 2 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3- inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
| FAIR VALUE | | MAY 31, 2013 | | NOVEMBER 30, 2012 |
| INPUT | | CARRYING | | ESTIMATED | | CARRYING | | ESTIMATED |
| | LEVEL | | | | AMOUNT | | | | FAIR VALUE | | | | AMOUNT | | | | FAIR VALUE | |
Derivative Liability | | 3 | | | | 115,800 | | | | 115,800 | | | | 58,200 | | | | 58,200 | |
Total Financial Liabilities | | | | | $ | 115,800 | | | $ | 115,800 | | | $ | 58,200 | | | $ | 58,200 | |
In management’s opinion, the fair value of convertible notes payable and advances payable is approximate to carrying value as the interest rates and other features of these instruments approximate those obtainable for similar instruments in the current market. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, exchange or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
The carrying value of cash balances, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related party approximates the fair value due to their short-term maturities.
Risk management is carried out by the Board of Directors. The Company's risk exposures and their impact on the Company's financial instruments are summarized below:
Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Company if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and are primarily held in large financial institutions.. Management believes that the credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents, is remote.

Note 4Financial Instruments and Risk Management(cont’d)
The Company tries to ensure that there is sufficient capital in order to meet short term business requirements, after taking into account the Company’s holdings of cash. As at May 31, 2013, the Company had cash totaling 1,365 (November 30, 2012 - $35,442) to settle current liabilities of $332,797 (November 30, 2012 - $442,056). The Company believes it will be able to raise financing in order to settle its current liabilities as they fall due.
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity and equity prices.
The Company has cash balances and no interest-bearing debt. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by its banking institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its banks.
The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar as substantially all of the Company’s operations are in Canada. The Company uses the United States dollar as its reporting currency for consistency with registrants of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
During the quarter ended May 31, 2013, the Company entered into a Property option agreement to acquire a mineral property in Mexico. Accordingly, future costs may be incurred in currencies other than its functional currency which may result in increased exposure to foreign exchange risk.

Note 4Financial Instruments and Risk Management(cont’d)
The Company has diligently investigated rights of ownership of all of its mineral property interests and, to the best of its knowledge, all agreements relating to such ownership rights are in good standing. However, all properties/concessions may be subject to prior claims, agreements or transfers, and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects.
Mineral exploration and development is highly speculative and involves inherent risks. While rewards if a feasible ore body is discovered might be substantial, few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. There can be no assurance that the current exploration programs by the Company will result in the discovery of economically viable quantities of ore.
Environmental legislation is becoming increasingly stringent and costs and expenses of regulatory compliance are increasing. The impact of new and future environmental legislation of the Company’s operation may cause additional expenses and restrictions.
If the restrictions adversely affect the scope of exploration and development on the mineral properties, the potential for production on the property may be diminished or negated.
The Company is subject to the laws and regulations relating to environmental matters in all jurisdictions in which it operates, including provisions relating to property reclamation, discharge of hazardous materials and other matters. The Company may also be held liable should environmental problems be discovered that were caused by former owners and operators of its properties and properties in which it has previously had an interest, if any. The Company attempts to conduct its mineral exploration activities in compliance with applicable environmental protection legislation. The Company is not aware of any existing environmental problems related to any of its current or former properties, if any, interests that may result in material liability to the Company.
Certain of the Company’s property interests may from time to time be located in countries outside of Canada, and mineral exploration and mining activities may be affected in varying degrees by political stability and government regulations relating to the mining industry. Any changes in regulations or shifts in political attitudes may vary from country to country and are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business. Such changes have, in the past, included nationalization of foreign owned businesses and properties. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, income and other taxes and duties, expropriation of property, environmental legislation and mine safety. These uncertainties may make it more difficult for the Company and its joint venture partners to obtain any required production financing for its mineral properties.

Note 8Convertible Notes Payable- (cont’d) -(Restatement – Note 15)
Promissory Note #14 (cont’d)
As at May 31, 2013, accrued interest of $2,095 (November 30, 2012 - $507), debt discount of $nil (November 30, 2012 - $nil) and a derivative liability of $2,100 (November 30, 2012 - $45,200) was recorded.
The Company determined that Promissory notes # 6, 7 ,8, and 10 should be accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 470-20 which addresses “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features".The intrinsic value of the conversion feature is calculated as the difference between the conversion price $0.01 and the fair value of the common stock into which the debt is convertible at the commitment date (being $0.05 for notes # 6, 7 and 8 and $0.02 for note 10), multiplied by the number of shares into which the debt is convertible. The valuation of the beneficial conversion feature is calculated as pro rata portion of the proceeds from issuance of the convertible debt, being equal to proceeds received multiplied by intrinsic value divided by the total value received (ie. the aggregate of proceeds and intrinsic value). This beneficial conversion feature is allocated to debt discount and additional paid in capital. Because the debt is convertible at the date of issuance, the valuation of the beneficial conversion feature is charged to interest expense at the date of issuance.
During the six month period ended May 31, 2013 interest expense relating to the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes of $nil (six month ended May 31, 2012 - $97,000) was recorded in the financial statements, with a corresponding increase to additional paid in capital

During the six month period ended May 31, 2013, the Company recognized a loss of $16,500 (three month period ended May 31, 2012 – gain of $77,200) based on the change in fair value (mark-to market adjustment) of the derivative liability associated with the embedded conversion features in the accompanying statement of operations.
These derivative liabilities have been measured in accordance with fair value measurements, as defined by GAAP ASC 815. The valuation assumptions are determined by Level 3 inputs. The following table represents the Company’s derivative liability activity for the embedded conversion features discussed above:

Note 10Asset Retirement Obligation
During the period November 2007 to October 2009, the Company acquired in tranches a 50% working interest in the Hayter 10-8-40-1 W4M oil and gas well in Alberta Canada, known as the “Hayter Prospect”. During the year ended November 30, 2012, due to financial restrictions in the current capital markets, management determined the focus of the Company in the future would predominantly be the exploration and development of the Zoro Mineral Property, and as the Company had no current plans to further develop the Hayter property, the Company recorded an impairment provision of $135,427 during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012, resulting in the book value of the Hayter prospect being $nil at November 30, 2012. As of May 31, 2013 and November 30, 2012, the Company determined the asset retirement obligation to be $17,372 and $16,845, respectively.
Total future asset retirement obligations were estimated by management based on the Company’s net ownership interest, estimated costs to reclaim and abandon the wells and the estimated timing of the costs to be incurred in future periods. The Company has estimated the net present value of its total asset retirement obligations at February 28, 2013 to be $16,889 based on a total undiscounted liability of $17,057 (Cdn$17,500) in the Hayter Prospect, Alberta, Canada. These payments are expected to be made over the next seven years, with the majority of the cost incurred between 2016 and 2019.

Note 13Commitment
| | On May 5, 2012, the Company entered into a consultancy agreement with Primary Capital LLC. (“Primary”), whereby Primary would provide financial advisory and investment banking services to the Company for a period of two years commencing May 7, 2012. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company paid Primary a non-refundable signing fee of $10,000 and issued Primary common stock equivalent to 4.9% (the “Applicable Percentage”) of the common shares on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of all outstanding derivative securities at the time of inception of the agreement. |
| | Accordingly, on May 5, 2012, 26,919 common shares were issued with a fair value of $53,838. |
Pursuant to the agreement should the Company issue further potentially dilutive derivative instruments, or issue stock from treasury at any time, then within 5 days of the end of the fiscal quarter in which such instruments or stock was issued, the Company will issue to Primary additional common shares (the “Adjustment shares”) such that Primary continues to hold common stock equivalent to the Applicable Percentage.
Should the Board of Directors grant options, warrants or other securities pursuant to a restricted stock purchase plan or stock option plan approved by the stockholders and Board of Directors of the Company, to employees or Directors such grants shall be considered Excluded Securities for the purposes of determining the Applicable Percentage and the calculation of Adjustment shares in future periods.
Also if the Company completes any financing during the engagement period and also within 2 years of the termination of the agreement with any party introduced to the Company by Primary, Primary will be entitled to:
| i) | a cash fee of 8% of the gross proceeds of the financing, |
| ii) | a 5 year warrant to purchase that number of shares equal to 8% of the number of shares issued in the financing on the same terms as the financing. Any such warrant issued will be in a form provided by Primary and may include terminology allowing for full ratchet anti-dilution provisions, standard and cashless exercise provisions and the same registration rights as received by the original investors. |
The agreement can be terminated by either party by providing written notice at any time after the first anniversary of the agreement if either party is in breach of the agreement and fails to cure such breach within 15 days after it receives notice of such breach. During the quarter ended May 31, 2013, the Company terminated the contract.
Note 14Subsequent Events
Subsequent to the period end:
| i) | On June 6, 2013, the Board of Directors changed the name of the Company to Force Minerals Corporation. |
| ii) | Also on June 6, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a 100:1 reverse stock split of the common shares which received regulatory approval on June 28, 2013. The record date for the reverse stock split was June 14, 2013. The authorized number of common shares remained unchanged. |

Note 15Restatement
| i) | Mineral Property Option Costs |
| | The Company reviewed its accounting policy for the capitalization of mineral option costs, and has determined that the mineral option costs incurred in the year ended November 30, 2010, amounting to $59,600 were expensed, when they should have been capitalized and accordingly, the results for the year ended November 30, 2010, were restated. The effect of the restatement was to increase the value of the Mineral Property Option by $59,600 at November 30, 2010, 2011 and 2012 and to reduce the loss for the year ended November 30, 2010 by $59,600, resulting in the accumulated deficit being reduced by $59,600 at November 30, 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively. |
| ii) | Convertible Notes Payable |
| | The Company has determined that certain transactions relating to the convertible notes payable were not correctly accounted for in the six month periods ended May 31, 2012 and accordingly the results of the six and three month periods ended May 31, 2012 have been restated. |
The Company did not recognize any embedded derivative liabilities arising upon the inception or during the term of certain convertible notes payable. As a result of this, at May 31, 2012, the value of the convertible notes on the balance sheet was overstated by $150,724 and derivative liabilities were understated by $170,900.
In the condensed consolidated statement of loss, for the six month period ended May 31, 2012 accretion of convertible debt and interest discount expense was overstated by $68,311, interest expense on beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes was overstated by $140,000 gain on elimination of convertible debt was overstated by $21,888 and interest expense was understated by $162,868. Finally the loss on change in fair value of derivative liability was understated by $40,200.
In the condensed consolidated statement of loss, for the three month period ended May 31, 2012 accretion of convertible debt and interest discount expense was overstated by $30,630, interest expense on beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes was overstated by $50,000 gain on elimination of convertible debt was overstated by $21,888 and interest expense was understated by $66,434. Finally the loss on change in fair value of derivative liability was understated by $21,000.

Note 15Restatement(cont’d)
| iii) | Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income |
| | The Company also determined the accounting for foreign exchange with respect to the translation adjustments arising on the translation of its Canadian subsidiary had been incorrectly recorded. Such gains or losses arising had been included in the operations of the year, rather than being treated as elements of other comprehensive income, which forms a separate part of equity. |
| | As a result of the restatement, the Company has increased the balance of other comprehensive income at November 30, 2011 by $6,388 and also increased the accumulated deficit by a corresponding amount. During the six month period ended May 31, 2012, foreign exchange charged to the income statement was reduced by $830 and a corresponding reduction to accumulated comprehensive income was recorded. During the three month period ended May 31, 2012, foreign exchange credited to the income statement was reduced by $454 and a corresponding increase to accumulated comprehensive income was recorded. |
The net effect of the above restatements at May 31, 2012 is to increase the carrying value of the mineral property by $59,600 to $139,600, reduce the carrying value of the convertible notes payable from $357,432 to $206,708 and to increase the derivative liability from $nil to $170,900. Accumulated other comprehensive income increased from $nil to $6,561. Also the previously reported loss for the six month period ended May 31, 2012, was increased by $16,095 to $416,491 and the previously reported loss for the three month period ended May 31, 2012 increased by $29,145 to $221,476. The previously reported accumulated deficit at May 31, 2012 increased by 44,176 from $3,300,141 to $3,255,965.

Company Overview
We are currently engaged in the business of identifying, evaluating, and qualifying potential mineral properties and investing in interests in those properties with the goal of producing commercially marketable quantities of various types of minerals.
The Hayter Well
We presently hold a 50% working interest of the County Line Energy Corp. interest in the Hayter Well located in Alberta, Canada. However, for the time being we have decided to abandon our pursuit of extracting oil and gas from this or any other oil and gas property. Instead, we plan to focus our efforts on our current mineral properties.
Zoro 1 Mineral Claim
On July 6, 2010, we entered into an option agreement with Dalton Dupasquier, pursuant to which Mr. Dupasquier has granted to us the sole and exclusive right and option, exercisable in the manner described below, to acquire a 100% net undivided interest in the property known as the Zoro 1 mineral claim, located near the East Shore of Wekusko Lake in west-central Manitoba, Canada.
Amount of Payment | Date Payment is Due | Additional Notes |
$59,600 | July 6, 2010 | This amount was paid. |
$102,900 | June 15, 2011 | This amount was paid in 1,000,000 shares of common stock. |
$194,800 | June 15, 2012 | This amount was agreed to be paid in $50,500 and 7,500,000 shares of common stock. We have paid $50,500 and issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock. |
$403,560 | June 15, 2013 | We did not make the payment as of June 15, 2013. We are in negotiations to extend the payment date. No assurance can be made, however, that we will come to terms with Mr. Dupasquier. As such, we may lose our option on the property. |
During the year ended November 30 2012, we incurred $8,639 on exploration expenditures on the property. During the six months ended May 31, 2013, we incurred $0 on exploration expenditures on the property.
We have no rights to the Zoro 1 mineral claim unless and until we exercise the option.
We acquired the option to explore the potential for deposits of lithium on the Zoro 1 mineral claim. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), global end-use markets for lithium include ceramics and glass, batteries, lubricating greases, air treatment, continuous casting and primary aluminum production. Batteries, especially rechargeable batteries, are the market for lithium compounds with the largest growth potential as major automobile companies pursue the development of lithium batteries to power hybrid electric cars.
In September 2009, we received a Technical Report on the Zoro 1 mineral claim. The report was authored by Mr. Mark Fedikow, PhD., P.Eng. of Mount Morgan Resources Ltd. The objectives of the report were to summarize the geology, review the historic ore reserves, and economic potential of the spodumene-bearing dykes delineated on the property and their surrounding geological environment.
An historic reserve estimate for Lithium oxide (Li2O) has been calculated on limited drilling on a single dyke on the Zoro 1 mineral claim. Drill indicated spodumene reserves coupled with data from trenching have been calculated with a total undiluted tonnage given as 1,727,550 at 0.945% Li2O. However, the historic data upon which the resource of 1,727,550 tons grading 0.945% Li2O was based is not dispositive. When the historic work was done, there was no “Qualified Person” in place, assay labs were not ISO Certified and insufficient drilling was undertaken to define the resource. It therefore became necessary to conduct more exploration activities to support the limited historic data available.
There are seven zoned pegmatite dykes on the Zoro 1 mineral claim. An exploration team explored the main dyke, located the additional seven trenches that had historically been noted on the Zoro 1 claim and produced a geologic map of each trench. Once areas of interest were located, the crew cleaned out the trenches and used a pick and shovel method to look at rocks to find pegmatite. They then took channel samples using a rock saw on historic trenches hosting pegmatite.
While exploring the main and additional seven dykes on the project area the crew identified several additional trenches that had not been noted in previous exploration programs. These findings suggest a potential for a greater amount of resource to be spread across the property, and give further encouragement for more detailed exploration.
Altogether 170 channel samples were sent for assay at Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ontario. The samples were analyzed to confirm historical lithium assays, and to assess the pegmatite for rare earth elements, including gold, rubidium, niobium, tantalum, tin, tungsten, and beryllium, all of which add to the prospectivity and economic viability of the Zoro 1 property.
Analysis of the channel samples collected from historic trenches in the pegmatite target has confirmed that a significant zone of lithium mineralization is present on the Zoro 1 claim. Analytical results are summarized in Table 1, which is attached to our annual report as Exhibit 99.2 that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2012.
With the current and future importance of lithium and the mineralized zone at Zoro 1, we are now preparing for the next phase of our exploration program. This phase, which will require a drill program, will assess the third dimension of the deposit and its historic resource, and determine the economic viability of mining the resource.
We plan to continue to explore the Zoro 1 mineral claim using the Exploration Recommendations outlined by Dr. Fedikow in the NI 43-101 Technical Report, which are set forth below along with a table of recommended expenditures.
Initially, the Zoro 1 pegmatites should be the focus of the following exploration approaches. These are as follows:
| 1. | Trench rehabilitation including overburden stripping and washing. |
| 2. | Geologic mapping of individual trenches at a scale of 1:20. |
| 3. | Detailed geological mapping at a scale appropriate to document relevant features on the property. This will include the seven pegmatite dykes, trench locations, historic drill collars and geological attributes of the dykes. It is likely this mapping will be undertaken at a scale of 1:1000. |
| 4. | Trench and channel sampling should be undertaken to confirm historic assay results. |
| 5. | Re-log historic drill core as possible. |
| 6. | A grid should be re-established on the property and an attempt made to tie-in the collar locations of all previous drilling. This information would help to structure new diamond drill programs. Initially, an attempt should be made to re-construct the historic grid although it is unlikely this will be possible given the length of time that has elapsed since the grid was first cut. |
| 7. | The geochemistry of the spodumene with particular relevance to iron content should be evaluated. Albite-rich portions of the pegmatite should be assayed for tantalum, tin, and niobium values. Altered and mineralized wallrocks should be assayed for gold particularly where the mineral assemblage of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and arsenopyrite are observed. Any subsequent drill program should be accompanied by a multi-element geochemical approach to assaying core including assays for gold. This will be followed up with assays for specific metals that may be present in the pegmatite dykes. The new assay program should be accompanied by a quality assurance and quality control program. |
| 8. | Diamond drilling should initially target Dyke No. 1 with the aim of ascertaining the physical size and extent of this dyke. Additional drilling will be necessary in the vicinity of the six remaining known dykes as well as any additional lithium-bearing pegmatite uncovered during exploration on the remainder of the property. |

Tres Hermanas Silver-Lead-Zinc Property
On May 14, 2013, we entered into a Mineral Property Acquisition Agreement (the "MPAA") with Highlander Overseas, Inc., a West Indies corporation (“Highlander”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the MPAA, Highlander shall grant us with the right to acquire one hundred percent (100%) of the mining interests in those certain four concessions known as La Predilecta, La Predilecta II, La Crus, and La Cascada (the “Property”), which is comprised of a total of approximately Three Thousand One Hundred Eighty One Hectares (3,181 ha) and is located in Miahuatlan District, in the Southern portion of Valles Centrales Region within Oaxaca State, Mexico. In exchange, we are required to: (i) pay two cash payments of Fifty Thousand dollars ($50,000) to Highlander for a total of One Hundred Thousand dollars ($100,000), the first payment of $50,000 is to be paid within 60 days after both parties have executed the MPAA, and the second payment is to be paid 90 days after both parties have executed the MPAA, and (ii) issue an aggregate of four million (4,000,000) restricted shares of our preferred common stock to Highlander, pursuant the terms and conditions of the MPAA.
We have not made the payments as of the date of this report. We are in negotiations to extend the payment date. No assurance can be made, however, that we will come to terms with Highlander. As such, we may lose our option on the property.
An NI 43-101 Report was prepared on the Tres Hermanas Silver-Lead-Zinc Property by Geologists Richard R. Culbert and David M. Pollard. A brief description of their Report follows.
The Tres Hermanas Property comprises 3,671 hectares, covering a mountainous area in the vicinity of the village of San Sebastian Rio Dulce, some 50 kilometres southwest of the city of Oaxaca.
Although there is some quartz of epithermal character, most of the vein is composed of sulphides. Silver, lead, zinc and molybdenum are the elements of value, while the gangue includes pyrite, arsenopyrite and barite, in addition to some quartz. Much of the sulphides occur as a fine, black intergrowth. Samples taken by the geologists verify the tenor of the silver grades reported from the earlier work, although most of the samples had to be taken from adit mouths and dumps.
The exploration conducted so far has yielded consistently encouraging results from surface sampling, adit sampling, soil geochemistry and four diamond drill cores. Looking forward, future work within a Phase I budget of $796,385, will include further soil geochemistry that extends the current grid further to the south-west, ground geophysics, in the form of a resistivity survey, Magnetometry and I.P. together with a 3,000 metre drilling program. This program will consist of approximately 26 drill holes focussing on the San Sebastian structure.
If this program gives the positive results that are anticipated, further funding will be sought (Phase II). This funding would finance a further 10,000 metres of drilling together with opening up all the adits with conventional mining equipment. These adits could then be mapped and sampled. Following this, an underground drilling program, using bazooka drills, should establish a measured and indicated resource. Bulk metallurgical tests would then be necessary to determine what concentrates can be produced at the mine and, how effectively local smelters would be able to recover these metals from the concentrate. A scoping study would then be undertaken to consider the economic viability of the project.
The total costs for Phase I and II are summarized in the below tables. The total cost of these two phases together is estimated at $11,446,485. We hope to be able to raise funds to commence work on Phase I of the program. There is no guarantee, however, that we will have the resources to permit any exploration on the claims.

Revenues
We have not earned any revenues to date, and do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we encounter commercially productive minerals to exploit. All of our prospects are undeveloped. We anticipate that we will have to address the cash shortfall through additional equity financings in the future. We can offer no assurance, however, that such financings will be available on terms acceptable to our company.
Expenses
Our expenses for the three and six months ended May 31, 2013 and May 31, 2012 are outlined in the table below:
| Three Months Ended May 31, 2013 | | Three Months Ended May 31, 2012 | | Six Months Ended May 31, 2013 | | Six Months Ended May 31, 2012 |

We had operating expenses of $11,773 for the three months ended May 31, 2013, as compared with operating expenses of $130,418 for the same period ended 2012. We experienced a decrease in operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2013 as a result of a credit of $92,400 for consulting fees because the contract was terminated and an accrual for “ stock to be issued “ pursuant to the contract was reversed. Our operating expenses were $177,553 for the six months ended May 31, 2013 as compared with $206,377 for the same period ended May 31, 2012, also as a result of a credit of $25,100 for consulting fees because the contract was terminated and an accrual for “stock to be issued” pursuant to the contract was reversed that was not experienced in the same period ended 2012. However, our management fees for both the three and six months ended May 31, 2012 were significantly higher than for the same periods ended May 31, 2013.
Other Expenses
We recorded $26,402 in other expenses as a result of $105,863 in interest expenses, offset mainly by $77,200 represented by a change in fair value of derivative liability for the three months ended May 31, 2013, as compared with other expenses of $90,637 as a result of $21,000 represented by a change in fair value of derivative liability and $69,637 for interest expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2012.
We recorded $154,206 in other expenses as a result of $139,967 in interest expenses and $16,500 represented by a change in fair value of derivative liability, offset by $2,261 in interest income for the six months ended May 31, 2013, as compared with other expenses of $209,974 as a result of $40,200 represented by a change in fair value of derivative liability and $169,774 for interest expenses for the six months ended May 31, 2012.
Net Loss
We recorded net income of $3,639 for the three months ended May 31, 2013, as compared with a net loss of $221,476 for the same period ended May 31, 2012.
We recorded a net loss of $289,945 for the six months ended May 31, 2013, as compared with $416,772 for the same period ended May 31, 2012.

Increase (Decrease) in Cash | ($ | 34,077 | ) | | $ | 3,565 | |
Cash Used In Operating Activities
Our net losses for the six months ended May 31, 2013 and May 31, 2012 were the main contributed reason for our negative operating cash flow for both periods. Cash used in operating activities was funded by cash on hand and cash from financing activities.
Cash from Financing Activities
We used $4,625 in cash for amounts owed to related party during the six months ended May 31, 2013 compared to cash provided of $119,220 from $177,500 from the issuance of convertible notes payable, offset by $625 in payment of related party advances and $57,655 in settlement of convertible notes payable during the six months ended May 31, 2012.
We will depend almost exclusively on outside capital to pay for the continued exploration and development of our properties. Such outside capital may include the sale of additional stock and/or commercial borrowing. Capital may not continue to be available if necessary to meet these continuing development costs or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.
If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations for our business, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment.
Stock Split
On June 6, 2013, the Board of Directors changed the name of the Company to Force Minerals Corporation. Also on June 6, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a 100:1 reverse stock split of the common shares. The name change and reverse stock split received regulatory approval on June 28, 2013. The record date for the reverse stock split was June 14, 2013. The authorized number of common shares remained unchanged. All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of common shares have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of May 31, 2013, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
Going Concern
At May 31, 2013, we had a working capital deficit of $331,432. We have yet to achieve profitable operations, have accumulated losses of $4,201,683 since our inception and expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which casts substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that we will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available or on acceptable terms, if at all.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated our company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by our company in reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities Exchange Commission and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our company's management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both United States generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines. Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.
We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending November 30, 2013, subject to obtaining additional financing: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out above are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended May 31, 2013 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.
Item 1A: Risk Factors
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
