PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Corporate History
We are currently engaged in the business of identifying, evaluating, and qualifying potential natural gas and oil wells; investing in interests in those wells with the goal of producing commercially marketable quantities of oil and natural gas. We have recently expanded our business model to include the exploration of mineral claims for rare earth minerals.
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.
Effective June 28, 2013, the Company with the approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), the Company has among other things (i) changed its name from “Force Energy Corp.” to “Force Minerals Corporation”, and (ii) authorized and approved a reverse stock split of One for One Hundred (1:100) of our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the "Stock Split"). The Stock Split decreased our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 230,992,890 to 2,309,928 shares of common stock. The common stock will continue to be $0.001 par value. The shareholder record date was June 14, 2013. The Stock Split shares are payable upon surrender of certificates to the Company's transfer agent. Fractional shares will be rounded upward.
On October 28, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company with the approval of a majority vote of its shareholders, designated four million (4,000,000) shares of the ten million (10,000,000) authorized preferred stock of our company as “Series A Preferred Stock” by filing a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The Series A Preferred Stock has 100 votes per share and is convertible into shares of our common stock. The Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, may not convert and hold more than 9.9% of the common stock outstanding at any one time.
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.
County Line Energy Corp. is the operator of the Hayter well. The Hayter well has been cased and cemented in anticipation of the completion of the drill program. County Line plans to enter the Hayter well, perforate the potential pay zones and conduct regular production testing of the zones. Should the testing confirm adequate oil reserves and potential economic flow rates, County Line is expected to install adequate pumping equipment and other surface facilities in anticipation of the projected flow rates. Currently, there are no known oil reserves on the Hayter well.
We have not incurred any development costs on the Hayter Well for the year ended November 30, 2013.
La Predilecta Properties
On May 30, 2013, the Companyentered 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 the Company 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, the Company is 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 the Company’s preferred common stock to Highlander, per the terms and conditions of the MPAA.
The Hayter Well
Purchase of Interest in the Hayter Well
On August 1, 2006, County Line Energy Corp. (“County Line”) signed a participation agreement with Black Creek Resources Ltd. (“BCR”) in which County Line acquired the right to become the operator and drill the Hayter well (10D Hayter 10-8-40-1 W4M) located in Alberta, Canada. In order to exercise that interest and acquire the rights to drill the Hayter well, County Line agreed to pay 100% of all costs associated with the seismic option agreement and pay 100% of the funds required to purchase rights to any existing seismic on the property which may be for sale and or shoot additional 2D and 3D on the property as required, pursuant to standard industry costs and practices.
Pursuant to a Participation Agreement dated December 21, 2006 between Black Creek Resources Ltd (“BCR”) and Nuance Exploration Ltd. (“NEL”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, we acquired a 100% ownership in the interpretation of 3D seismic data covering four sections of certain land located in the province of Alberta, Canada by paying $82,650 for the purpose of acquiring and interpreting the seismic data. On October 15, 2007, prior to the evaluation of the 3D seismic data, County Line sold to BCR its 100% interest in the subject property and received as consideration a non-interest bearing promissory note for $111,144 (CDN$110,000) to be repaid by November 30, 2007.
On November 30, 2007, County Line did not repay the amounts owing pursuant to the promissory note and NEL and County Line entered into a Participation Agreement whereby NEL accepted a 20% interest of the Grantor’s working interest in the County Line 10D Hayter 10-8-40-1 W4M well as full and final settlement of the promissory note. Pursuant to the terms of the Participation agreement NEL agreed to assume 20% of all revenues, costs and expenses associated with the project.
During our first fiscal quarter of 2009 we advanced $23,938 (CDN$29,000) to County Line Energy Corp for costs and expenses associated with the Hayter Well as an unsecured loan. On October 16, 2009 we entered into an amendment to our participation agreement with County Line pursuant to which we acquired an additional 30% working interest in the Hayter Well in consideration of a release by Force from all amounts owed by County Line to Force. Following our entry into the amended participation agreement we now hold a 50% working interest in the County Line Energy Corp. interest in the Hayter Well.
We have not incurred any development costs on the Hayter Well for the year ended November 30, 2013.
Location of Hayter Well
Force Energy Corp. has a 50% working interest of the County Line Energy Corp. interest in the Hayter Well (10D Hayter 10-8-40-1 W4M) located in Alberta, Canada. The well was spudded in January 2007 and drilled to a total depth. The well logs revealed a gas zone of 4 to 5 meters of thickness in a shallow zone and a heavy oil pay zone of 2 meters of thickness in the target Dina Sand zone.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-KA/0001333563-14-000026/forcannualreport10k_10kz001.jpg)
County Line completed a $650,000 3D seismic program covering nine sections of land in pursuit of a potential multi well heavy oil drilling opportunity. The geological model was based on interpretation from a previous well, which produced 16,000 barrels of heavy oil. The seismic program was designed to determine whether the structure found in this well existed to a larger extent on the subject property. The 3D seismic revealed an extremely large anomaly with similar characteristics. The nature of this large anomaly suggested that a multi well drilling opportunity might exist.
County Line Energy Corp. is the operator of the Hayter well. The Hayter well has been cased and cemented in anticipation of the completion of the drill program. County Line plans to enter the Hayter well, perforate the potential pay zone(s) and conduct regular production testing of the zone(s). Should the testing confirm adequate oil reserves and potential economic flow rates, County Line is expected to install adequate pumping equipment and other surface facilities in anticipation of the projected flow rates. Currently, there are no known oil reserves on the Hayter well.
Oil and Gas Properties and Wells
On March 9, 2009, Force received a report on reserves data for the Hayter Well prepared by its independent engineers, Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd.
The following table sets forth the number of wells in which the Company held a working interest as at November 30, 2009:
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-KA/0001333563-14-000026/forcannualreport10k_10kz002.jpg)
The Company has not since the beginning of its most recently completed fiscal year, filed any annual estimates of proved oil and gas reserves with any federal agencies. As at November 30, 2012, the 50% working interest of the Hayter Well was recorded at $135,427.
Competition
The mineral exploration and oil and gas industries, in general, are intensely competitive and even if commercial quantities of reserves are discovered, a ready market may not exist for the sale of the reserves.
Most companies operating in this industry are more established and have greater resources to engage in the production of mineral or oil and gas claims (the “claims”). Our resources at the present time are limited. We may exhaust all of our resources and be unable to complete full exploration of our claims. There is also significant competition to retain qualified personnel to assist in conducting mineral exploration activities. If a commercially viable deposit is found to exist and we are unable to retain additional qualified personnel, we may be unable to enter into production and achieve profitable operations. These factors set forth above could inhibit our ability to compete with other companies in the industry and enter into production of the claims if a commercial viable deposit is found to exist.
Numerous factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.
Compliance with Government Regulation
We are required to obtain licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. These permits or licenses may include water and surface use permits, occupation permits, fire permits, timber permits,drilling and abandonment bonds, reports concerning operations, the spacing of wells, and pooling of properties and taxation. Prior to being issued the various permits or licenses, the applicant must file a detailed work plan with the applicable government agency. Permits are issued on the basis of the work plan submitted and approved by the governing agency. Additional work on a given mineral property or a significant change in the nature of the work to be completed would require an amendment to the original permit or license.
As part of the permit or licensing requirements, the applicant may be required to post an environmental reclamation bond in respect to the work to be carried out on the mineral property. The amount of such bond is determined by the amount and nature of the work proposed by the applicant. The amount of a bond may also be increased with increased levels of development on the property.
We anticipate that we will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits to carry on the activities which we intend to conduct, and that we intend to comply in all material respects with the terms of such licenses and permits. As we have not proceeded to the development of our properties, we have not incurred any expenditures related to complying with such laws, or for remediation of existing environmental contamination. The requirements imposed by such laws and regulations are frequently changed and subject to interpretation, and we are unable to predict the ultimate cost of compliance with these requirements or their effect on our operations.
Subsidiaries
We have two wholly owned subsidiaries, FRC Exploration Ltd. (a British Columbia Corporation) and Nuance Exploration Ltd. (a British Columbia Corporation).
Employees
Currently our only employee is Tim DeHerrera. We do not expect any material changes in the number of employees over the next twelve month period. We anticipate that we will be conducting most of our business through agreements with consultants and third parties. We plan to outsource independent consultant engineers and geologists on a part time basis to conduct specific corporate business and exploration programs on our properties in order to carry out our plan of operations for the foreseeable future. Consultants will be retained on the basis of ability and experience.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
An investment in the Company's common stock involves a high degree of risk. One should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating an investment in the Company's common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of the Company's common stock could decline, and one could lose all or part of one's investment. One should also refer to the other information set forth in this report, including the Company's consolidated financial statements and the related notes.
Our common stock is considered a "penny stock". The application of the "penny stock" rules to our common stock could limit the trading and liquidity of the Common stock, adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase the transaction costs to sell those shares.
Our common stock is a "low-priced" security or "penny stock" under rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document, which describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer's duties in selling the stock, the customer's rights and remedies and certain market and other information. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer's financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer, obtain specific written consent from the customer, and provide monthly account statements to the customer. The effect of these restrictions will likely decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, will decrease liquidity of our common stock and will increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.
The company continues to use significant amounts of cash for its business operations, which could result in us having insufficient cash to fund the company's operations and expenses under our current business plan.
The Company's liquidity and capital resources remain limited. There can be no assurance that the Company's liquidity or capital resource position would allow us to continue to pursue our current business strategy. Any fluctuations or downturn in the securities market could adversely affect the value of our outstanding securities. As a result, without achieving growth in our business along the lines we have projected, we would have to alter our business plan or further augment our cash flow position through cost reduction measures, sales of assets, additional financings or a combination of these actions. One or more of these actions would likely substantially diminish the value of its common stock.
Because of the unique difficulties and uncertainties inherent in the mineral exploration business, we face a high risk of business failure.
Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of mineral properties. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. The search for valuable minerals also involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. At the present time, we have no coverage to insure against these hazards. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position. In addition, there is no assurance that the expenditures to be made by us in the exploration of the mineral claims will result in the discovery of mineral deposits. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts.
If we are unable to successfully compete within the mineral exploration business, we will not be able to achieve profitable operations.
The mineral exploration business is highly competitive. This industry has a multitude of competitors and no small number of competitors dominates this industry with respect to any of the large volume metallic minerals. Our exploration activities will be focused on attempting to located commercially viable mineral deposits on our claims. Many of our competitors have greater financial resources than us. As a result, we may experience difficulty competing with other businesses when conducting mineral exploration activities on our claims. If we are unable to retain qualified personnel to assist us in conducting mineral exploration activities on our claims; if a commercially viable deposit is found to exist, we may be unable to enter into production and achieve profitable operations.
There is substantial uncertainty about the ability of Force Minerals Corp. to continue its operations as a going concern.
In their audit report, our auditors have expressed an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an ongoing business. Because our officers may be unwilling or unable to loan or advance any additional capital to Force Minerals Corp., we believe that if we do not raise additional capital within 12 months, we may be required to suspend or cease the implementation of our business plans. As such we may have to cease operations and you could lose your entire investment.
Because the Company has been issued an opinion by its auditors that substantial doubt exists as to whether it can continue as a going concern it may be more difficult to attract investors.
Risks Related To Our Financial Condition
Because we anticipate our operating expenses will increase prior to our earning revenues, we may never achieve profitability.
Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We expect to incur continuing and significant losses into the foreseeable future. As a result of continuing losses, we may exhaust all of our resources and be unable to complete the exploration of our properties. Our accumulated deficit will continue to increase as we continue to incur losses. We may not be able to earn profits or continue operations if we are unable to generate significant revenues from the exploration of our mineral claims. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will be successful, and we may not be able to generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.
If we do not obtain adequate financing, our business will fail, resulting in the complete loss of your investment.
If we are not successful in earning revenues once we have started our planned sales activities, we may require additional financing to sustain business operations. Currently, we do not have any arrangements for financing and we may be unable to obtain financing when required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including the Company’s ability to attract customers. The Company may be unable to access to capital markets in the future or that financing, adequate to satisfy the cash requirements of implementing our business strategies, will be available on acceptable terms. The inability of the Company to gain access to capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could have a material adverse effect upon the results of its operations and upon its financial conditions.
The company’s management could issue additional shares, since the company has 5,000,000,000 authorized common shares, diluting the current shareholders’ equity.
The Company has 5,000,000,000 common shares, of which 4,393,194are currently issued and outstanding. The Company’s management could, without the consent of the existing shareholders, issue substantially more shares, causing a large dilution in the equity position of the Company’s current shareholders. Additionally, large share issuances would generally have a negative impact on the Company’s share price. It is possible that, due to additional share issuance, you could lose a substantial amount, or all, of your investment.
Our board of directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial to common stockholders and may grant voting powers, rights and preference that differ from or may be superior to those of the registered shares.
Our articles of incorporation allow us to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock without any vote or further action by our stockholders. Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval, including large blocks of preferred stock. Furthermore, TimDeHerrera serves as our sole director and, therefore, has the ability to issue preferred stock without shareholder approval. As a result, our sole director could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock.
Future sales of our common stock could put downward selling pressure on our common stock, and adversely affect the per share price. There is a risk that this downward pressure may make it impossible for an investor to sell share of common stock at any reasonable price, if at all.
Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or the perception that such sales could occur, could put downward selling pressure on our common stock and adversely affect its market price.
We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.
We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, but plan rather to retain earnings, if any, for the operation, growth and expansion of our business. Because the Company does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future which may lower expected returns for investors, and as such our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their investment unless they sell their shares of common stock.
Because we expect to incur losses in the future, failure to generate revenues will cause us to go out of business and your entire investment could be lost.
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will be incurring expenses and not generating revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to go out of business.
Our operating results may prove unpredictable, which could result in the complete loss of your investment.
Our operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors, many of which we have no control. Factors that may cause our operating results to fluctuate significantly include: our ability to generate enough working capital from future equity sales; the level of commercial acceptance by the public of our services; fluctuations in the demand for secure online storage; the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our business, operations, infrastructure and general economic conditions.
If realized, any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results, which could result in the complete loss of your investment.
As the company’s sole officer and director has other outside business activities, he may not be in a position to devote a majority of his time to the company, which may result in periodic interruptions or business failure.
Mr. DeHerrera our sole officer and director, has other business interests and currently devote approximately 20 hours per week to our operations. If the demands of the Company’s business requires more business time of our sole officer and director, he is prepared to adjust his timetable to devote more time to the Company’s business. However, he may not be able to devote sufficient time to the management of the Company’s business, which may result in periodic interruptions in implementing the Company’s plans in a timely manner. Such delays could have a significant negative effect on the success of the business.
Key management personnel may leave the company, which could adversely affect the ability of the company to continue operations.
The Company is entirely dependent on the efforts of its sole officer and director. The Company does have an employment agreement in place with its sole officer and directors. Their departure or the loss of any other key personnel in the future could have a material adverse effect on the business. The Company believes that all commercially reasonable efforts have been made to minimize the risks attendant with the departure by key personnel from service. However, there is no guarantee that replacement personnel, if any, will help the Company to operate profitably. The Company does not maintain key person life insurance on its sole officer and directors.
In the case if the company is dissolved, it is unlikely that there will be sufficient assets remaining to distribute to the shareholders.
In the event of the dissolution of the Company, the proceeds realized from the liquidation of its assets, if any, will be distributed to the shareholders only after the claims of the Company’s creditors are satisfied.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our principal executive offices are located at 6302 Mesedge Drive, Colorado Springs, Denver, CO 80919.A description of our oil and gas properties is set forth above in this Annual Report under the heading “Business.” As of the date of this filing, the Company has not sought to move our office. Additional space may be required as the Company expands its operations. Management does not foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining any required additional space. The Company currently does not own any real property.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our director, officer or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

Record Holders
As of February 21, 2014, there were 4,393,194shares of the registrant’s $0.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding and were owned by approximately 31 holders of record, based on information provided by our transfer agent.
Penny Stock Regulation
Shares of our common stock will probably be subject to rules adopted the SEC that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks”. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in those securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which contains the following:
|
- a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; |
- a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to violation to such duties or other requirements of securities’ laws; |
- a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask” prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the "bid" and "ask" price; |
- a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; |
- definitions of significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and |
- such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format), as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation. |
Prior to effecting any transaction in penny stock, the broker-dealer also must provide the customer the following:
|
- the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; |
- the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; |
- the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and |
- monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. |
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.

Impact of Inflation
We believe that the rate of inflation has had a negligible effect on our operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. Since its inception, the Company has been funded by related parties through capital investment and borrowing funds.
As of November 30, 2013, total current assets were $nil, which consisted primarily of cash, inventory and deposits.
As of November 30, 2013, total current liabilities were $523,739, which consisted primarily of accounts payable and accrued expenses and convertible debentures. We had negative net working capital of $(523,739) as of November 30, 2013.
During the period from November 1, 2006 (Inception of Exploration Stage) through November 30, 2013, operating activities used cash of $(1,820,610). The cash used by operating activities related to general and administrative expenses, the purchase of inventory for resale and non-cash items related to derivative instruments. Except for cash in the amount of $nil from sales of our products, all of the cash during this period was provided by related party transactions, capital contributions and convertible debentures.
Intangible Assets
The Company’s intangible assets were $nil as of November 30, 2013.
Material Commitments
The Company’s material commitments were $nil as of November 30, 2013.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.
Future Financings
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Contractual Obligations
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Force Minerals Corporation
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Force Energy Corp. (“the Company”) as of November 30, 2013 and 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended November 30, 2013 and from November 1, 2006 (date of inception) through November 30, 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company, at November 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012 and from inception (November 1, 2006) through to November 30, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses since inception and has an accumulated deficit at November 30, 2013. These and other factors discussed therein raise a substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to those matters are also described in Note 1. The Company’s ability to achieve its plans with regard to those matters, which may be necessary to permit the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business, is uncertain. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

FORCE MINERALS CORPORATION
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2013 and 2012
Note 1:Organization and Basis of Presentation
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.
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Financial Statements and related disclosures as of November 30, 2013 are audited pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Force Minerals Corporation,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “company” are to Force Energy Corp and any subsidiaries.
Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements of the Company are presented on the accrual basis. The significant accounting policies followed are described below to enhance the usefulness of the financial statements to the reader.
The preparation of financial statements is in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Development Stage Activities
The Company is a development stage exploration company. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.
F-13
The Company is subject to several categories of risk associated with its development stage activities. Mineral exploration and natural gas and oil exploration and production is a speculative business, and involves a high degree of risk. Many factors have a direct bearing on the Company’s prospects and there are inherent uncertainties in these activities. Mineral exploration is dependent upon finding an ore body that is economic to develop. Uncertainties that exist with natural gas exploration include estimating natural gas and oil reserves, future hydrocarbon production, and cash flows, particularly with respect to wells that have not been fully tested and with wells having limited production histories; access to additional capital; changes in the price of natural gas and oil; availability and cost of services and equipment; and the presence of competitors with greater financial resources and capacity.
Principles of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Force Energy Corp and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, FRC Exploration Ltd. (a company incorporated in British Columbia, Canada,) (“FRC”) and Nuance Exploration Ltd. (a company incorporated in British Columbia, Canada) (“NEL”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Foreign Currency Translation
The reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company is the local currency, the Canadian dollar. The financial statements of the Company are translated into United States dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, using year-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses and historical rates for equity. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. At November 30, 2013 and 2012, the cumulative translation adjustment of $6,540 and $6,027, respectively, was classified as an item of other comprehensive income in the stockholders' equity (deficit) section of the consolidated balance sheets. For the years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012, the foreign currency translation adjustment to Accumulated Other Comprehensive income was $513 and ($1,364) respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash and highly liquid investments with original maturity dates of less than three months that may not be reported as investments. While the Company may maintain cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which at times exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits, they have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Management believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Oil and Gas Properties
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas operations whereby all costs of exploring for and developing oil and gas reserves are initially capitalized on a country-by-country (cost center) basis. Such costs include land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenses, carrying charges on non-producing properties, costs of drilling and overhead charges directly related to acquisition and exploration activities.
Costs capitalized, together with the costs of production equipment, are depleted and amortized on the unit-of-production method based on the estimated gross proven reserves. Petroleum products and reserves are converted to a common unit of measure, using 6 MCF of natural gas to one barrel of oil.
F-14
Costs of acquiring and evaluating unproven properties are initially excluded from depletion calculations. These unevaluated properties are assessed periodically to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. When proven reserves are assigned or the property is considered to be impaired, the cost of the property or the amount of the impairment is added to costs subject to depletion calculations.
If capitalized costs, less related accumulated amortization and deferred income taxes, exceed the “full cost ceiling” the excess is expensed in the period such excess occurs. The “full cost ceiling” is determined based on the present value of estimated future net revenues attributed to proven reserves, using current prices less estimated future expenditures plus the lower of cost and fair value of unproven properties within the cost center.
Proceeds from a sale of petroleum and natural gas properties are applied against capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such a sale would alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proven reserves of oil and gas attributable to a cost center.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets are reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value. Impairment on the properties with unproven reserves is evaluated by considering criteria such as future drilling plans for the properties, the results of geographic and geologic data related to the unproven properties and the remaining term of the property leases.
Mineral Properties
Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities-Mining,” when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization are not met.
In the event that mineral property acquisition costs are paid with Company shares, those shares are recorded at the estimated fair value at the time the shares are due in accordance with the terms of the property agreements.
Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.
When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and pre-feasibility, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized.
Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis.
Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards. Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.
To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.
F-15
Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset Retirement Obligations (“ARO”) associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset, including natural gas and oil properties, are recognized as liabilities in the period in which it is incurred and becomes determinable, with an offsetting increase in the carrying amount of the associated assets. The cost of tangible long-lived assets, including the initially recognized ARO, is depleted, such that the cost of the ARO is recognized over the useful life of the assets. The ARO is recorded at fair value, and accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted fair value is accreted to the expected settlement value. The fair value of the ARO is measured using expected future cash flow, discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate.
Derivative Liabilities and Classification
Free-standing financial instruments (or embedded derivatives) indexed to the Company’s common stock are evaluated to properly classify such instruments within equity or as liabilities in the financial statements. Accordingly, the classification of an instrument indexed to our stock, which is carried as a liability, must be reassessed at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during a reporting period, the instrument is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. There is no limit on the number of times a contract may be reclassified.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. There are no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.
Basic Loss per Share
Net loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the assumed exercise of share options are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss and are excluded from the determination of net loss per share – basic and diluted. Accordingly, net loss per share basic and diluted are equal in all periods presented.
Comprehensive Income
F-16
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, ASC 220, Comprehensive income (loss) requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. For the years presented, the Company's comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments and is presented in the consolidated statements of changes in operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820,Fair Value Measurements(ASC 820). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair market hierarchy, which requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels based on the reliability of the inputs to determine the fair value:
Level 1 – defined as inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 – defined as unobservable inputs for use when little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
| | | | | |
| Fair Value | November 30, 2013 | November 30, 2012 |
| Input Level | Carrying Amount | Estimated Fair Value | Carrying Amount | Estimated Fair Value |
Derivative Liability | 3 | $ 90,297 | $ 90,297 | $ 58,200 | $ 58,200 |
Total Financial Liabilities |
| $ 97,297 | $ 97,297 | $ 58,200 | $ 58,200 |
In management’s opinion, the fair value of convertible notes payable and advances payable approximatesthe 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.
Note 3 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
F-17
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) of Fair Value Measurement – Topic 820.” ASU 2011-04 is intended to provide a consistent definition of fair value and improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments include those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements, as well as those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-02—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, on July 27, 2012, to simplify the testing for a drop in value of intangible assets such as trademarks, patents, and distribution rights. The amended standard reduces the cost of accounting for indefinite-lived intangible assets, especially in cases where the likelihood of impairment is low. The changes permit businesses and other organizations to first use subjective criteria to determine if an intangible asset has lost value. The amendments to U.S. GAAP will be effective for fiscal years starting after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Hayter Prospect, Alberta, Canada
By a participation agreement dated December 21, 2006, Nuance Exploration Ltd. (“NEL”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company acquired a 100% ownership in the interpretation of 3D seismic data covering four sections of certain land, known as the Hayter Prospect, located in the province of Alberta, Canada by paying $82,650 (CDN$95,000) in costs of acquiring and interpreting the seismic data.
On October 15, 2007, prior to the evaluation of the 3D seismic data, NEL sold to the original grantor (the Grantor) its 100% interest in the 3D seismic data and received as consideration a non-interest bearing promissory note for $111,144 (CDN$110,000) to be repaid by November 30, 2007.
On November 30, 2007, the Grantor did not pay the promissory note and NEL and the Grantor entered into a Participation Agreement whereby NEL accepted a 20% interest of the Grantor’s working interest in the County Line 10D Hayter 10-8-40-1 W4M well as full and final settlement of the promissory note totaling $95,702 after considering the effects of the foreign exchange on the note.
On October 16, 2009, the Company entered into an amendment to its Participation Agreement pursuant to which it acquired an additional 30% working interest in the Hayter Well in consideration of a release by Force from an amount of $23,938 owed by the Grantor to the Company. The Company holds a 50% working interest of the Grantor’s interest in the Hayter Well.
The addendum was subsequently amended by the parties on February 1, 2010 to replace the reference to the Company in the agreement with Nuance Exploration Ltd., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary.
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 (See Note 5). Accordingly, as no current plans to further develop the Hayter property exist, the company recorded an impairment provision of $135,427.
At November 30, 2012, the 50% working interest of the Hayter Well was recorded at $0. The company also recorded $16,845 as an asset retirement obligation (See Note 10).

On October11, 2013, the Company authorized and directed to amend and restate the note into a new promissory note to Direct Capital Group Inc. and to provide conversion features equal to the lower of (i) $0.001 per share or (ii) 60% of the lowest closing bid price of the last day of 5 trading days prior to conversion.
Promissory Note #10
On March 20, 2012, the Company received $30,000 cash and issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $30,000. The promissory note is unsecured, interest free and repayable upon demand.
The note is convertible at the option of the holder into Common stock of the Company. The fixed conversion price is $0.01 per share. Accordingly the note may be converted into 3,000,000 common shares of the Company.
The note also contains a provision whereby should the Company perform a stock split or reverse stock split, theconversion price of the note reverts to the lesser of 40% of market value at the time of conversion, or $0.01 pershare. Accordingly, subsequent to the period end on June 14, 2013, this conversion provision was triggered.
The Company determined that Promissory notes # 6, 7, 8, and 10 should be accounted for in accordance with FASBASC 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 (i.e. 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 years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012, interest expense relating to the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes of $0 and $97,000 respectively, was recorded in the financial statements with a corresponding increase to additional paid in capital.
Promissory Note #11
On June 12, 2012, the Company received $42,500 cash and issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $42,500.

During the years ended November 30, 2013and 2012, the Company accrued $107 and $1,593 in interest expense respectively.
After 180 days the note is convertible at the option of the holder into Common stock of the Company. The conversion price is defined as “55% multiplied by market price where market price is determined as the average bid
F-25
price for the shares as quoted on the OTCBB where the shares are traded for the three consecutive business days prior to the date of conversion”. The Company determined that the embedded conversion feature would be a derivative liability based upon its variable conversion terms once the holder’s conversion rights were triggered.
In December 2012, upon the holder’s option to convert becoming active, the Company recorded debt discount and a derivative liability of $38,600 being the fair value of the conversion feature, which was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The debt discount is accreted to the statement of operations using the effective interest rate method over the term on the note or to the date of conversion. The derivative liability is revalued at each reporting date to fair value. Any change in fair value is credited or charged to the statement of operations in the period.
During the year ended November 30, 2013, the Company recorded a loss of $4,300 due to the change in value of the derivative liability during the period, and debt discount of $38,600 was accreted to the statement of operations.

After 180 days the note is convertible at the option of the holder into Common stock of the Company. The conversion price is defined as “48% multiplied by market price where market price is determined as the average bid price for the shares as quoted on the OTCBB where the shares are traded for the three consecutive business days prior to the date of conversion”. The Company determined that the embedded conversion feature would be a derivative liability based upon its variable conversion terms once the holder’s conversion rights were triggered.
In February 2013, upon the holder’s option to convert becoming active, the Company recorded debt discount and a derivative liability of $43,600 being the fair value of the conversion feature, which was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The debt discount is accreted to the statement of operations using the effective interest rate method over the term on the note or to the date of conversion. The derivative liability is revalued at each reporting date to fair value. Any change in fair value is credited or charged to the statement of operations in the period.
During the year ended November 30, 2013, the Company recorded a loss of $60,551 due to the change in value of the derivative liability during the period, and debt discount of $43,600was accreted to the statement of operations.

After 180 days the note is convertible at the option of the holder into Common stock of the Company. The conversion price is defined as “50% multiplied by market price where market price is determined as the average of the lowest three (3) closing bid prices during the ten trading days prior to the date of conversion”.

The Company determined that Promissory notes # 6, 7, 8, and 10 should be accounted for in accordance with FASBASC 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 (i.e. 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.

Note 10: Asset 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 November 30, 2013 and November 30, 2012, the Company determined the asset retirement obligation to be $18,861 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 February2013 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.
The Company’s credit adjusted risk free rate of 15% and an inflation rate of 8% were used to calculate the present value of the asset retirement obligation.

1.
a cash fee of 8% of the gross proceeds of the financing,

The Company on review of 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 is to increase the value of the Mineral Property
F-36
Option by $59,600 at November 30, 2010 and 2011 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.
2.
Convertible Notes Payable
The Company has determined that certain transactions relating to the convertible notes payable were not correctly accounted for in the year ended November 30,2011 and accordingly the results of the year ended November 30, 2011 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 November 30, 2011 the value of the convertible notes on the balance sheet was overstated by $136,781 and derivative liabilities were understated by $129,000. In the statement of loss, accretion of convertible debt and interest discount expense was overstated by $5,781 and the gain on change in fair value of derivative liability was understated by $2,000.
The effect of the restatement is to reduce the carrying value of the convertible notes payable from $217,870 to $210,089 and to increase derivative liability from $nil to $129,000. Also the loss for the year is reduced from $509,720 to $501,939, with a corresponding reduction to deficit at November 30, 2011.
3.
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.
Note 17:Legal Matters
The Company has no known legal issues pending.
Note 18:Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements and notes have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
For the year ended November 30, 2013, the Company had a comprehensive loss of $939,407. In addition, the Company had a net loss of $1,073,628 for the year ended November 30, 2012. These circumstances result in substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably or raise additional capital through debt financing and/or through sales of common stock.
The failure to achieve the necessary levels of profitability or obtain the additional funding would be detrimental to the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company has adopted and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this annual report, is collected, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the SEC. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Inasmuch as we only have one individual serving as our officer, director and employee we have determined that the Company has, per se, inadequate controls and procedures over financial reporting.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: domination of management by a single individual without adequate compensating controls, inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, and lack of an audit committee. These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive who also serves as our Financial Officer in connection with the above annual evaluation.
Management believes that the material weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and inadequate segregation of duties results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
Management recognizes that its controls and procedures would be substantially improved if we had an audit committee and two individuals serving as officers and as such is actively seeking to remediate this issue. Management believes that the material weakness in its controls and procedures referenced did not have an effect on our financial results. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Office who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of November 30, 2013, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is ineffective based on those criteria.
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer, who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control processes will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of error or fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that the breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
21
goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us. And, we plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us.
Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board.
We will work as quickly as possible to implement these initiatives; however, the lack of adequate working capital and positive cash flow from operations will likely slow this implementation.
Changes in Internal Control
There have been no changes in internal controls over the financial reporting that occurred during the period ending November 30, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

o
2,500,000 shares of our stock which was payable upon execution of the Agreement. If the Agreement is terminated by either DeHerrera or us, then DeHerrera shall owe to us an amount of shares equal to 100,000 shares multiplied by the number of months he failed to work for us during that time period from July 23, 2010 to July 22, 2011.
·
The Agreement may be terminated with 30 days’ notice by either us or DeHerrera.
On July 18, 2011, we entered into a new employment contract with DeHerrera as President, which expires July 18, 2013. Pursuant to the contract, DeHerrera received 2,500,000 common shares having a fair value of $125,000. DeHerrera will receive $7,500 per month for months 13-24 of the contract. Unless the contract is terminated by either party giving 45 days written notice the contact will automatically renew. Should the contract be renewed then DeHerrera will receive 2,500,000 shares of common stock and an annual increase of $2,500 per month upon each renewal. If the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to settle the cash element of the contract, then at the request of DeHerrera any accrued unpaid fees may be converted into common stock at $0.025 per share.
On July 16, 2012, we entered into an addendum to the contract which expires on July 15, 2014. Pursuant to the contract DeHerrera received 7,500,000 common shares and will continue to receive 7,500,000 common shares upon the anniversary of the addendum. DeHerrera will receive $10,000 per month for months 25-36 of the contract and an annual monthly increase of $2,500 per month thereafter.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
No executive officer received any equity awards, or holds exercisable or exercisable options, as of the year ended November 30, 2013.
