Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements: | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure | Focus Gold Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated on December 23, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name Real Estate Referral Center Inc. On April 21, 2009, the Company changed its name to Gold Bag, Inc. and effective June 6, 2011 to Focus Gold Corporation. In October 2010 the Company entered into an option agreement with Victoria Gold Inc. for the right to explore and purchase mineral claims located in Ontario Canada and since that time the Company’s principal business has been the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. The Company is considered an exploration stage company and its financial statements are presented in a manner similar to a development stage company as defined in FASC 915-10-05, and interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission for mining companies in Industry Guide 7. As at February 28, 2013, the Company disposed of all of its then existing mineral properties and the Company has initiated steps to restructure itself and has engaged an outside consultant to identify, review, and assess additional mineral properties for purchase. The Company has developed a private equity strategy to acquiring gold mining properties following several key investment criteria that include: properties that are in safe governmental jurisdictions primarily in the Americas; properties that provide geographic diversification across its portfolio; projects with significant exploration upside; and, where possible, properties with existing capable management teams to which it can then provide senior level experienced management oversight. Once a property has matured, the Company will seek to divest the property either through a strategic sale or through a spin-off into a stand-alone public company. |
On December 31, 2010, the Company acquired 100% ownership of Fairfields Gold S.A. de CV (“Fairfields”), a Mexican corporation involved in the exploration and expansion of its mineral properties. On October 25, 2011, through its wholly owned subsidiary Focus Celtic Gold Corporation (“Celtic”) the Company completed on the acquisition of 98.65% ownership of Metallum Resources Plc. (“Metallum”), an England &Wales corporation which is involved in the exploration and expansion of its mineral properties. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company exchanged shares of Celtic for settlement of accounts payable reducing the Company’s equity stake in Celtic to 92.16%. On October 5, 2012, the Company sold its 92.16% interest in Celtic. The associated assets and liabilities of Celtic and Metallum have been classified as discontinued operations at February 29, 2012. The operations of Celtic and Metallum Resources Plc. through October 5, 2012 have been reflected in loss from operations of discontinued entities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. On February 8, 2013, the Company sold its 100% interest in Fairfields. The operations of Celtic and Fairfields for the six month period ended August 31, 2012 have been reflected in loss from operations of discontinued entities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. | |
The prior period results of continuing operations of Celtic and Fairfields have been reclassified to loss from discontinued operations. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. | |
Reclassification, Policy | Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheet of August 31, 2012, the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three month and six month periods ended August 31, 2012 and the condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the six month period ended August 31, 2012 have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation. |
All references to common shares of the Company have been adjusted to give effect to the implementation of a 20:1 reverse split of the Company’s authorized and issued common stock which was effected on January 14, 2013. | |
Use of Estimates, Policy | The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include the determination of impairment of mineral properties and equipment, useful lives for amortization, valuation allowances for future income tax assets, fair value of non-cash stock-based compensation and reclamation and environmental obligations. Actual results, as determined by future events, may differ from these estimates. |
Going Concern Note | The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of $515,277 during the six month period ended August 31, 2013, and has an accumulated deficit of $19,335,974 since entry into the exploration stage. Additionally, the Company is in default of various notes with principal amounts aggregating $349,100. The Company changed its principal business to the development and exploitation of mineral properties in October 2010, but has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease development of operations. |
In order to continue as a going concern, develop a reliable source of revenues, and achieve a profitable level of operations the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of common stock and or a debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. | |
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. |

Accounting Policies: | ||||||||||
Significant Accounting Policies | This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. This condensed summary should be read in conjunction with the disclosure of accounting policies in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2013. | |||||||||
(a) Mineral Properties, Leases and Exploration and Development Costs | ||||||||||
The Company accounts for mineral properties in accordance with ASC 930: Extractive Activities-Mining. Costs of acquiring mineral properties and leases are capitalized by project area upon purchase of the associated claims (see Note 5). Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value. | ||||||||||
The Company accounts for mineral exploration and development costs in accordance with ASC 932: Extractive Activities. All exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred, previously capitalized costs are expensed in the period the property is abandoned. Expenditures to develop new mines, to define further mineralization in existing ore bodies, and to expand the capacity of operating mines, are capitalized and amortized on units of production basis over proven and probable reserves. | ||||||||||
Any option payments received by the Company from third parties or tax credits refunded to the Company are credited to the capitalized cost of the mineral property or to exploration costs as applicable. If payments received exceed the capitalized cost of the mineral property or the exploration costs incurred, the excess is recognized as income in the year received. | ||||||||||
The amounts shown for mineral properties do not necessarily represent present or future values. Their recoverability is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development, and future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. | ||||||||||
(b) Derivative Instruments | ||||||||||
Derivative instruments consist of common stock warrants and certain instruments embedded in certain notes payable and related agreements. These financial instruments are recorded in the balance sheets at fair value as liabilities. Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings in the period of change. | ||||||||||
(c) Impairment of Long-lived Assets | ||||||||||
The Company reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment at each balance sheet date and documents such impairment testing. The tests include an evaluation of the assets and events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Mineral properties in the exploration stage are monitored for impairment based on factors such as the Company's continued right to explore the area, exploration reports, assays, technical reports, drill results and the Company's continued plans to fund exploration programs on the property, whether sufficient work has been performed to indicate that the carrying amount of the mineral property cost carried forward as an asset will not be fully recovered, even though a viable mine has been discovered. | ||||||||||
The tests for long-lived assets in the exploration, development or producing stage that would have a value beyond proven and probable reserves would be monitored for impairment based on factors such as current market value of the mineral property and results of exploration, future asset utilization, business climate, mineral prices and future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the related assets. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset, including evaluating its reserves beyond proven and probable amounts. | ||||||||||
The Company's policy is to record an impairment loss in the period when it is determined that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable either by impairment or by abandonment of the property. The impairment loss is calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value. | ||||||||||
During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Company recorded an impairment charge on its Metallum properties and Watabeag & Russell. | ||||||||||
(d) Stock-based Compensation | ||||||||||
The Company accounts for stock based compensation to employees as required by ASC718: Compensation-Stock Compensation and stock based compensation to nonemployees as required by ASC505-50: Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Options and warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The offset to the recorded stock based compensation cost is to additional paid-in capital. Consideration received on the exercise of stock options is recorded as share capital and additional paid-in capital and the related additional paid-in capital is transferred to share capital. | ||||||||||
(e) Warrants | ||||||||||
The Company accounts for warrants issued in conjunction with stock issuances under private placement using the fair value method. Under this method, the value of warrants issued is measured at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model and recorded as share capital and additional paid-in capital. | ||||||||||
The Company recognized the value of detachable warrants issued in conjunction with issuance of notes payable using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company recorded the relative fair value of the warrant as an increase to additional paid-in capital and discount against the related debt. The discount attributed to the value of the warrants is then amortized over the term of the underlying debt instrument. | ||||||||||
(f) Estimates | ||||||||||
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include the determination of impairment of mineral properties and equipment, useful lives for amortization, valuation allowances for future income tax assets, fair value of non-cash stock-based compensation and reclamation and environmental obligations. Actual results, as determined by future events, may differ from these estimates. | ||||||||||
(g) Recent 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 | ||||||||||
(h) Going Concern | ||||||||||
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of $515,277 during the six month period ended August 31, 2013, and has an accumulated deficit of $19,335,974 since entry into the exploration stage. Additionally, the Company is in default of various notes with principal amounts aggregating $349,100. The Company changed its principal business to the development and exploitation of mineral properties in October 2010, but has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease development of operations. | ||||||||||
In order to continue as a going concern, develop a reliable source of revenues, and achieve a profitable level of operations the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of common stock and or a debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. | ||||||||||
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. | ||||||||||
(i) Fair Value Measurements | ||||||||||
The FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification defines fair value as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in the following three categories: | ||||||||||
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. | ||||||||||
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active or inactive markets and valuations derived from models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets. | ||||||||||
Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in any market. | ||||||||||
Given the conditions surrounding the trading of the Company’s equity securities, the Company values its derivative instruments related to embedded conversion features and warrants from the issuance of convertible debentures in accordance with the Level 3 guidelines. For the six month period ended August 31, 2013, the following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances for financial instruments that are recognized at fair value in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The fair value of warrants and embedded conversion features that have exercise reset features are estimated using an adjusted Black-Scholes model based on the Company’s estimation of the likelihood of the occurrence of a reset. | ||||||||||

Debt: | |
Debt Disclosure | In September 2011, the Company entered into two Demand Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate amount of $270,000. The Notes were due upon demand after November 14, 2011 ($200,000, the “September 14, 2011 Note”) and November 19, 2011 ($70,000, the “September 19, 2011 Note”). The Notes bear interest at the rate of 2% per month calculated and compounded monthly and a commitment arrangement and placement fee of $67,500 per month (less interest). On June 14 and 19, 2012 the Company entered into a Promissory Note Amending Agreement with the holders of the Notes where by the note holders agreed to extend the maturity of the September 14, 2011Note to September 14, 2012 and the September 19, 2011 Note to September 19, 2012 and to settle outstanding commitment, arrangement and placement fees of $554,825 in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and eliminate any future commitment, arrangement and placement fees under these promissory notes. In September 2012 the Notes with a principal amount of $270,000 matured without payment and are in default thereafter. |
Under the terms of the Notes as modified, in the event of non-payment by the Company at maturity, the interest rate on the Notes increases to 5% per month and the Company is required to issue 57,500 and 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock respectively in advance for each month of non-payment of the Notes. During the six month period ended August 31, 2013 the Company issued the note holders 497,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in settlement of $53,484 of penalty shares. The fair value at August 31, 2013 of the penalty shares outstanding of $2,316 (February 28, 2013, $48,430) and accrued interest of $332,839 (February 28, 2013, $178,101) are included in the Notes Payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. | |
On March 22, 2012 the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note to JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) in aggregate principal amount of $2,110,000 (the “JMJ Note”) to be advanced over time. In consideration for issuing of the JMJ Note and 125,000 warrants, JMJ provided the initial funding of $275,000 (total of $356,000 through February 28, 2013). The JMJ Note bears interest at a one-time amount of 10%, matures three years from the date of issuance, is secured by 25% of the Company’s investment property and ownership or other equity interests the Company holds in Focus Celtic Gold Corporation, its wholly owned subsidiary, and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at JMJ’s option, at a conversion price, equal to 80% of the average of the three lowest trade prices for the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days prior to the conversion. The Note was issued with a 10% original issue discount. The original issue discount of $39,556 is being accreted to amortization of debt discount over the term of the note. JMJ has agreed to restrict their ability to convert the JMJ Note and receive shares of common stock so that the number of shares of common stock held by JMJ and its affiliates in the aggregate after such conversion or exercise, does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. No interest or principal payments are required until the maturity date. The Note may be prepaid at any time prior to Maturity Date at 150%. The 125,000 warrants issued to JMJ entitle JMJ to purchase up to 125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.00 per share, subject to adjustment to maintain an aggregate exercise price of $500,000. The 125,000 common share purchase warrants may in certain circumstances be exercised in whole or part in a cashless exercise equal to the difference between the VWAP on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the holder elects to exercise the warrant, and the exercise price of the warrant times the number of warrants so being exercised. The warrant exercise price may be adjusted to a lesser amount than $4.00 where, at any time while the warrant is outstanding, and the Company sells or grants an option to purchase or sell, or grants any right to re-price, or issues any share of common stock or security convertible into the Company’s common stock, at an effective price less than the $4.00 exercise price, the exercise price shall be reduced to that lesser amount. The warrant is non-transferrable. The Company has determined that the warrants and the convertible feature of the JMJ Note are derivative liabilities with fair values of $418,531 and $867,469 respectively at their dates of issue. The fair value of the derivative liability was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected life of 3.0 years; volatility of 102.6%; no dividend yield; and a risk free interest rate of 0.56%. The fair value of the derivative liability was recorded as a discount to the debt of $337,692 and $948,308 of interest and financing fees. The discount is being amortized to amortization of debt discount over the term of the JMJ Note. The unamortized discount at August 31, 2013 was $121,056 (February 28, 2013 - $193,858). | |
At August 31, 2013, the fair value of the derivative liability on the warrants and conversion feature was determined to be $773,586 (February 28, 2012 - $1,018,675) and $276,931 (February 28, 2013 - $291,921) respectively. The fair value of the derivative liability at August 31, 2013 was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected life of 1.6 years; volatility of 101.26%; no dividend yield; and a risk free interest rate of 0.25%. The Company estimates the fair value of this derivative liability at each reporting period and records any change in the fair value of the derivative liability to the statement of operations. During the six month period ended August 31, 2013, the holder of the JMJ Note exercised conversion rights and the Company issued an aggregate of 3,740,000 of its common stock for $51,556 principal amount of this note. | |

At any time, the Company has the option to redeem the GEL Note and pay to the holder, 150% of the unpaid principal amount of the GEL Note, in full. As part of the loan, the Company issued to the note holder 71,429 transferable warrants to purchase one common share per warrant at $1.40 per share for a period of three years. The fair value of the 71,429 warrants was $25,738 and was recorded as interest and financial fees. The fair value of the warrants was calculated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected life of 3.0 years; volatility of 91.32%; no dividend yield; and a risk free interest rate of 0.34%. The GEL Note was determined to have a derivative liability related to its conversion feature with a fair value of $104,954 at July 23, 2012 which was recorded as a discount to the debt of $100,000 and $4,954 of interest and financing fees.

On March 21, 2013 the Company restructured its relationship with European Resource Capital Inc.
