BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Silver Crest Mines, Inc., the Company’s predecessor, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho in 1968. The Company was organized to develop mineral properties located in the State of Idaho. The Company’s initial and subsequent efforts in the acquisition, exploration and development of potentially viable and commercial properties were unsuccessful. The Company has a history of losses and no revenues from operations. The Company’s capital needs have historically been met by the issuance of securities either through private placements, the issuance of shares for debt or the joint venture or lease of mineral properties. In June 2003, the Company merged into its wholly-owned subsidiary, Silver Crest Resources, Inc., for the purpose of changing the Company’s state of domicile to Nevada.

The Company was thereafter dormant until the completion of the share exchange effective August 1, 2006 with Niagara Mining & Development Company, Inc. (“Niagara”), an Idaho corporation formed on January 11, 2005, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kisa Gold Mining, Inc. (“Kisa”), an Alaskan corporation formed on July 28, 2006. Under the terms of the share exchange, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Niagara in exchange for 37,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. At the time of the share exchange, Niagara was in the process of completing the acquisition and staking of mining claims in Alaska and Idaho. On June 20, 2008, 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Kisa were transferred from Niagara to the Company.

The following table shows the wholly owned subsidiaries of Gold Crest Mines, Inc.  All exploration activity takes place in our wholly owned subsidiary Kisa Gold Mining, Inc.

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

General Description of the Business

We are in the business of exploration, development, and if warranted the mining of properties containing valuable mineral deposits. The focus of our exploration programs is directed at precious metals, primarily gold. We continue to identify, investigate and acquire potential properties for future exploration and development when warranted.

Alaska Properties

In southwest Alaska, after the staking of two new claims, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Kisa controls or has interests in five consolidated claim blocks consisting of 274 State of Alaska mining claims covering 42,280 acres. four of the claim blocks making up 35,240 acres comprise the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project and the remaining claim group consisting of 7,040 acres is the Company’s Buckstock Project. Previous workers located and prospected several significant precious metal showings in this remote, highly prospective portion of the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt nearly 20 years ago. The showings show many similarities in mineralization style, alteration and general geologic characteristics to Nova Gold Resources and Barrick’s Donlin Creek project and other major Kuskokwim Mineral Belt gold deposits.

In Alaska, the lands are held under and are subject to the State’s mining laws and regulations.

Competitive Business Conditions

There is aggressive competition within the minerals industry to discover and acquire properties considered to have commercial potential. The Company competes for the opportunity to participate in promising exploration projects with other entities, many of which have greater resources than the Company. In addition, the Company competes with others in efforts to obtain financing to explore and develop mineral properties.

Regulation

The Company’s activities in the United States are subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing prospecting, development, production, labor standards, occupational health and mine safety, control of toxic substances, and other matters involving environmental protection and taxation. It is possible that future changes in these laws or regulations could have a significant impact on the Company’s business, causing those activities to be economically reevaluated at that time.

Estimate of the Amount Spent on Exploration for the Last Two Years

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, The Company did not directly spend any money on exploration activities. Currently all expenses are being incurred by our joint venture partner as part of their earn-in process. See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –North Fork OptionMaster Earn-in Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

Employees

The Company’s total number of employees is 2, which includes the CFO and the CEO / President, the CEO and President titles are held by the same individual. The CFO and CEO / President work part time. We intend to utilize the services of consultants and contractors to provide additional services to the Company as needed.

Company Website

In October of 2012 after the Company was unable to pay the dues for the domain name ofwww.goldcrestminesinc.com due to financial constraints.  As a result the Company’s domain name was lost and was then purchased by a third party.  Any further references to the websitewww.goldcrestminesinc.com cannot be relied upon for information on our Company.  Until notified otherwise, the Company does not intend to have a presence on the World Wide Web.

SOUTHWEST KUSKOKWIM PROJECT

Summary

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Kisa, after the staking of two new claims, controls or has interests in four consolidated claim blocks consisting of 230 State of Alaska mining claims covering 35,240 acres which comprise the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project. The claims consist of exploration properties in southwest Alaska approximately 90 miles east of the village of Bethel in the consolidated claim groups known as the AKO, Luna, Kisa and Gold Lake within the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt. Our claim groups of Gold Creek, Little Swift and GO were consolidated into the AKO claim group after the GO claims connected the claim groups.  The two Gosson Valley claim groups were dropped in 2012. Previous workers located and prospected several significant precious metal showings in this remote, highly prospective portion of the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt nearly 20 years ago. The showings show many similarities in mineralization style, alteration and general geologic characteristics to Nova Gold Resources and Barrick’s Donlin Creek project and other major Kuskokwim Mineral Belt gold deposits.

On March 28, 2011 Kisa executed a Master Earn-In agreement (“the Agreement”) with North Fork LLC, (“North Fork”) an Alaska limited liability company.

This agreement calls for North Fork to explore for gold deposits on Kisa’s claim blocks in the Southwest Kuskokwim Project area and the Buckstock project area (“Projects”).

The following is a breakdown of the proposed earn-in terms:

1.

The initial interest at the time North Fork exercises its option to earn into the “Projects” will be as follows:

a.

Gold Crest Mines, Inc. – 100%

b.

North Fork – 0%

2.

North Fork can acquire a 51% interest in one or more “Projects” by making an aggregate of $3,000,000 of Exploration Expenditures on or for the benefit of the claims on or before October 31, 2013.

3.

If North Fork withdraws from the Joint Venture prior to earning a 51% interest in the “Projects”, it will have no further interest in the “Projects”.

4.

North Fork can earn an additional 24% interest in the “Projects”, taking its total interest to 75% by the expenditure of an additional $3,000,000 by October 31, 2016.

5.

North Fork can earn a total interest of 90% in any of the “Projects” claim blocks by the completion of a Bankable Feasibility Study.

6.

Gold Crest Mines, Inc. will retain a free carried 10% interest in the “Projects” up to a Decision to Mine at which point it can elect to contribute at 10% or dilute to a 2% Net Smelter Royalty.

7.

North Fork is obliged to keep the Projects in “good standing”.

8.

North Fork will be the sole manager of the “Projects” and will make all decisions in regards to the exploration programs.

See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –North Fork Option Master Earn-in Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

Location and Access

The Southwest Kuskokwim Project area is situated in a mountainous, high relief area located approximately 100 miles east of Bethel, Alaska and approximately 120 miles southwest of Donlin Creek and 40 miles west of the Shotgun Deposit. The project area lies along the boundary between the Bristol Bay, Kuskokwim and Bethel Recording Districts in southwest Alaska on State of Alaska lands. Bethel is the nearest community with full, year-round services. Commercial barge service from Anchorage is available from late May through early October at Bethel.

The effective work season in the project area is from July through September. The lakes in the immediate area typically remain frozen and snow covers ridges and upper slopes until late June or early July. Currently, personnel and equipment access to the area is limited to float planes capable of landing on lakes, via helicopter or via small fixed wing aircraft equipped with tundra tires.

The nearest areas to the prospects that are closed to mineral entry include Wood – Tikchik State Park located to the east of the Gold Lake and Kisa claim groups. Areas to the west and south are property of the Federal government and include the Yukon Flats National Wildlife and Togiak National Wildlife Refuges respectively. There currently are no unusual social, political or environmental encumbrances to exploration, development or production on the prospects. There are currently no roads or power available to the properties. Should attempts to develop one or more of the prospects occur, there is no guarantee that controversy will not arise as a result of any proposed development.

Geologic Setting and Deposit Types

The properties are situated in the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt in the southern portion of the Aniak-Tuluksak and southeastern portion of the Bethel Mining Districts. Historically the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt has been a major placer and lode gold producer as well as the major source of mercury in Alaska since the turn of the twentieth century. Recent regional- to deposit-scale investigations by industry, academic institutions and government workers have helped better define the mineral deposit types and geologic controls in the Mineral Belt. This work has been spurred on by the discovery of major gold deposits throughout the northern and central portion of the belt, including the largest known deposit in the belt, the Donlin Creek deposit located approximately 120 miles to the northeast.

Rock sequences exposed in the Kuskokwim region consist of fault-bounded blocks consisting of Jurassic- to Tertiary-age assemblages of sedimentary, volcanic and intrusive rocks. These rocks were subsequently deformed, weakly metamorphosed and intruded by middle Cretaceous to Tertiary plutons, and associated dikes and sills, often in swarms along structural corridors. Glacial and modern flood plain deposits typically fill the broad glacially-carved valleys.

Previous Work by the Company

The Company’s past exploration efforts on the project include:

·

Completion of 2,100 square miles of high resolution airborne geophysical surveys over the project area and south of the Donlin Creek gold deposit in 2006 and 2007;

·

Completion of 17-line miles of induced polarization/resistivity surveys, 120-line miles of ground magnetics, collection of over 300 stream sediments and 250 rock samples and three soil grids on anomalies in the seven claim block area in 2006 and 2007;

·

Completion of over 3,100 feet of drilling at the Kisa Breccia target in the Kisa claim group with encouraging results in 2007;

·

Acquisition of two historic district-scale industry reconnaissance data sets and development of a proprietary steam sediment database that includes over 3,000 conventional silt and pan concentrate stream sediment samples. These samples define district-scale anomalies along distinct trends identified by the airborne geophysics and cover an area beginning at Kisa and extending 100 miles to northeast to the southern reaches of the Donlin Creek deposit;

·

Entry into a Joint Venture with Newmont Mining Corporation on the AKO and Luna prospects on May 8, 2008 which later terminated on December 12, 2008. While they were the Company’s Joint Venture partner they completed systematic rock and soil sampling on the Luna and AKO claim groups.

·

Entry into a Joint Venture with Cougar Gold LLC, who later transferred their interest to TintinaGold Resources Inc. (TintinaGold) who was the operator of the Golden Lynx, LLC on the Kisa, Gold Lake, Little Swift, Gossan Valley and Gold Creek prospects. The work performed by Cougar Gold while they were the Company’s Joint Venture partner included the completion of over 3,200 feet of drilling on the Gossan Ridge prospect, Gold Lake claim group with encouraging results, the completion of a soil grid on the Gold Lake and Kisa prospects extending areas of anomalous gold mineralization and the staking of additional mining claims over the Kisa, Gold Lake, Gold Creek, Gossan Valley and Little Swift prospect areas.

·

On March 28, 2011 the Company executed a Master Earn-In agreement with North Fork to explore for gold deposits on Kisa’s claim blocks. Work completed by North Fork over the 2010, 2011 and 2012 seasons comprised the following;

o

Southwest Kuskokwim Project Descriptions

All the claims held under the Southwest Kuskokwim Project area are currently part of a Master Earn-in Agreement with North Fork. The agreement was finalized and executed on March 28, 2011.

AKO Prospect

The AKO claim group is located in the southwestern Kuskokwim mountains approximately 9 miles southwest of the Kisa Prospect. The Company controls approximately 11,680 acres on 73 state mining claims. In 2011, two joiner claims were staked to combine the Little Swift and Gold Creek Prospects into the AKO claim to form one larger contiguous claim group. The AKO prospects were first discovered 20 years ago during a regional reconnaissance program. Follow-up included limited rock-chip sampling and field examination of several linear to ovoid iron-oxide stained ridgeline and valley-wall color anomalies within and along the faulted, western margin of the Crooked Mountain Pluton. These color anomalies are found at the headwaters of streams with strong gold and multi-element anomalies in stream sediments and pan concentrates and they are aligned along a pronounced, linear topographic feature that stretches for several miles. These prospects have never been drilled.

The Company’s exploration in the area includes compilation of historic data, completion of fixed-wing aeromagnetic and electromagnetic surveys, aerial reconnaissance mapping, stream sediment sampling and preliminary prospecting on several of the color anomalies identified to date. Stream-sediment samples from below the area of the known color anomalies and gold showings contain highly anomalous gold, arsenic, antimony, molybdenum and bismuth. Pan concentrates from streams draining these areas also contain visible gold. Follow-up work in 2007 has identified a number of targets on the property for further follow-up and possibly drill testing.

On May 8, 2008, the Company signed three separate joint venture agreements with Newmont North America Exploration Limited, a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation (”Newmont”). During the joint venture Newmont completed a systematic reconnaissance type soil and rock chip sampling program over the AKO claim group which resulted in the delineation of two contiguous large gold anomalies on the claim group, The largest anomaly is centered over a distinctive aeromagnetic anomaly thought to represent a separate intrusive phase of the Crooked Mountain Pluton, consists of soils and rocks containing gold values greater than 0.02 ppm. This anomaly is over 13,500 feet long and 2,400 feet wide and is associated with multiple sets of sheeted quartz-sulfide vein systems. A similar and contiguous anomaly is situated adjacent to the main anomaly and has a slightly different trend and consists of soils and rock samples defining an anomalous area over 20,000 feet long and 2,700 feet wide. Neither of these anomalies has been drill tested. However on December 12, 2008, the Company received from Newmont a letter that notified of its intent to terminate the three venture agreements effective immediately.

In 2010, work performed by our current joint venture partner, North Fork consisted of re-sampling of the main soil and rock chip anomalies as confirmation of previous work. In addition, two joiner claims were pegged to connect AKO with the adjacent Little Swift and Gold Creek claim blocks. In the future, assessment work will be combined for the larger AKO claim block. During 2011, North Fork revisited the area with an independent geo and re-sampled some of the higher grade rock chips from the previous year.  All work performed in 2012 was focused on compiling data for a National Instrument 43-101.

TheLittle Swift claims consisting of 2,240 acres of the AKO group and were staked to prospect a distinctively linear, contact zone between the Crooked Mountain quartz monzonite pluton and the cupola of hornfelsed sedimentary rocks. The prospect sites are staked over six large linear to ovoid iron-oxide stained ridgeline and valley wall color anomalies along the contact zone. Previous workers collected highly anomalous stream silt samples from below the area of the color anomalies.

TheGold Creek claims consisting of 1,920 acres of the AKO group were staked to prospect several iron-oxide stained color anomalies developed within the cupola of hornfelsed sedimentary rocks associated with the eastern margin of Crooked Mountain quartz monzonite pluton. The prospect sites are staked over four large ovoid-valley wall color anomalies that appear to be stratiform in character. Previous workers collected highly anomalous stream-sediment samples from below the area of the color anomalies. In 2008, Cougar Gold LLC, an affiliate of Electrum USA Ltd., operator of the Golden Lynx LLC at the time, completed sampling and mapping of the Gold Creek prospects. Mapping located a series of large quartz monzonite to diorite dikes in the headwaters of the streams reporting anomalous gold and pathfinder elements. Large color anomalies noted previously were examined and found to be associated with extensive fracture controlled sulfide development. The most intense sulfide development and fracturing were found to be stratigraphically controlled and associated with distinctive chert and black siltite sections. Weak gold and pathfinder anomalies are associated with these fracture zones. Much of the prospect area is covered with glacial alluvium and talus potentially masking potential mineralized areas within the claim group.Luna Prospect

9

The Luna claim group is located in the southern Kuskokwim mountains of southwestern Alaska approximately 100 miles to the southeast of Bethel and 6 miles west of the Kisa prospect. The project area is accessed by helicopter or by small aircraft capable of landing on a tundra dirt strip. The Company staked the property in mid-2007, which consists of 50 state mining claims covering approximately 8,000 acres.

The Luna prospect was discovered during follow-up of an airborne geophysical anomaly identified from proprietary surveys completed in the fall of 2006 and spring of 2007. A regional-scale structural zone was interpreted from the airborne geophysical data. Follow-up exploration involving IP, resistivity and ground magnetic surveys, systematic stream-sediment and rock-chip sampling and geologic mapping led to the discovery.

Follow-up exploration involving IP, resistivity and ground magnetic surveys, systematic stream-sediment and rock-chip sampling and geologic mapping led to the discovery. Over 16 line-miles of IP-resistivity and 40 line-miles of ground magnetics were completed in 2007. The geophysical surveys define a 4.8 miles long by 1.4 miles wide IP and resistivity anomaly coinciding with a ground and aerial magnetic anomaly. Several conductors identified from the airborne electromagnetic surveys correspond with zones of semi-massive sulfide replacement mineralization located on the ground.

A total of 41 stream-sediment samples collected from streams draining the prospect area outline a distinct 10 square mile gold, arsenic, and antimony anomaly. A total of 40 of 72 rock chip samples collected from the prospect area contain anomalous gold. Gold is associated with anomalous arsenic, antimony, bismuth, molybdenum, silver, copper, lead and zinc.

Mineralization is hosted in calcareous siltstones, cherts and tuffaceous sedimentary rocks as well as in porphyritic intrusive rocks. Gold has been found in a broad area that exhibits pervasive fracturing and clay alteration. The prospective area contains ubiquitous disseminated, vein and stockwork sulfide accumulations. Intrusive rocks occur as dikes, sills and small stocks and compositionally include diorites and granodiorites as well as rhyolites. Several zones of stratiform sulfide replacement mineralization with cherty silica alteration containing up to 70% sulfides, primarily fine-grained pyrite, arsenopyrite and stibnite and to a lesser extent chalcopyrite and sphalerite have been located within the claim group.

The presence of widespread base and precious metals anomalies in stream sediments and rocks along this newly located structural zone and the association of these anomalies with intrusive rocks and reactive sedimentary rocks opens up a wide range of opportunities for future discoveries.

On May 8, 2008, the Company signed three separate joint venture agreements with Newmont North America Exploration Limited, a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation (”Newmont”). During the joint venture Newmont conducted rock sampling and mapping on the project in 2008 and confirmed previous sampling results produced by the Company. However on December 12, 2008, the Company received from Newmont a letter that notified of its intent to terminate the three venture agreements effective immediately.

In 2010, work performed by our current joint venture partner, North Fork consisted of rock chip sampling and prospecting. The project area is predominantly covered by a blanket of till, meaning outcrop is limited to where streams incise into the till layer and expose the underlying bedrock. During 2011, North Fork continued with rock chip sampling and prospecting, as well as completed a number of soil sampling traverses in an attempt to define drill targets for testing during 2012. Work performed in 2012 was focused mainly on compiling data for a National Instrument 43-101 and permitting for exploration drilling programs.

Kisa Prospect

The Kisa claim group is made up of 38 state mining claims covering approximately 5,840 acres. The mining claims encompass a narrow, linear, northeast trending ridge held up with hornfelsed Jurassic- to Cretaceous-age sedimentary rocks intruded by rhyolite to gabbroic dikes and sills. Several northwest-trending spurs off the main ridge appear to be related to crosscutting dikes of a different age and composition. Geochemical analyses suggest associations similar to those known from other gold deposits within the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt including the producing Fort Knox Mine and advanced exploration projects at Donlin Creek to the north and Shotgun Hills to the east.

During 2007, the Company completed over 3,100 feet of core drilling with encouraging results on one of the main targets of the Kisa claim group, known as theKisa BrecciaTarget. A poorly exposed, extensively silica-carbonate-sulfide altered breccia body is located along a ridge crest and steep, north-facing valley walls. The breccia is composed of a mixture of altered sedimentary and igneous clasts, many of which exhibit multiple generations of veining and brecciation. The breccia body is exposed over an area approximately 1000 feet wide x

10

1600 feet long and roughly 800 feet high. Systematic rock chip samples from outcropping exposures of this breccia average 1.25 parts per million (0.036 troy ounces per short ton) gold. The Company completed six core holes into the target during the 2007 drilling campaign. All six holes cut broad zones of intensely altered igneous breccia containing low grade gold mineralization including narrower higher grade intervals. Hole K07-04 cut 678 feet averaging 0.3 parts per million gold; hole K07-05 cut 378 feet averaging 0.7 parts per million (0.02 ounces per ton) gold, including an intercept of 144 feet averaging 1.3 parts per million (0.038 ounces per ton) and hole K07-06 cut 485 feet averaging 0.4 parts per million (0.012 ounces per ton) gold.

TheGolden DikeTarget includes the rocks exposed on and under a prominent northeast trending ridgeline running through the center of the Kisa claim group. The ridge contains numerous silica-carbonate-sulfide altered felsic rhyolite dikes and sills exposed over an area 900 feet wide x 9800 feet long with at least 650 feet of exposed vertical extent. Float mapping, aerial photographic linears, airborne geophysical data and soil sampling suggest the dike swarm may extend in both directions under talus covered slopes and into the adjacent valleys. Sedimentary rocks are heavily iron oxide stained and fractured in the hornfelsed zones adjacent to and along the dike and sill margins and contain various oxidation products after sulfides. The dikes are often bleached, silicified and typically contain disseminated to stockwork sulfide veining. The large spatial extent and intense alteration of this dike swarm and the heavily iron-stained host rocks suggest the presence of a mineralized system at the surface and underlying the ridge. The length-weighted average grade sampled from the dike swarm averaged greater than 0.1 parts per million of gold. Similar dikes swarms and alteration zones are associated with the mineralized zones in the Donlin Creek deposit.

Work in 2007 included detailed rock chip and soil sampling, ground and airborne geophysics and geologic mapping. This work has now expanded the target area to a zone approximately 850 feet to 1,500 feet wide x 15,000 feet long with at least 525 feet and locally up to 1,150 feet of exposed vertical extent. Additional soil and rock chip sampling and geologic mapping were completed during the 2008 field season and expanded the areas of known gold mineralization considerably.

ThePirate’s PickTarget is located in the northern portion of the Kisa claim group and consists of a large northwest-trending quartz-carbonate-sulfide veined fault zone. The intensely stockwork-veined fault is intermittently exposed over the crest and flanks of a small ridge in an area roughly 650 feet wide by 1150 feet long with several hundreds of feet of exposed vertical extent. The fault occurs along the northern end of the ridge hosting the dike-sill complex and field evidence suggests the fault may offset and displace the dike swarm. The length-weighted average grade of 18 rock chip samples collected from this zone is 1.95 parts per million (0.057 ounces per ton) gold.

Additional targets occur along the projections of the dike swarm and fault systems into the adjacent talus covered slopes and glacial drift filled valleys, but will require additional work prior to definition of drill targets. Several small rubble crop and/or outcrop showings along the valley edge to the northwest of the main ridge contain anomalous pathfinder element suites and gold values. These showings correspond with a marked airborne magnetic geophysical anomaly identical to that over the main ridge to the southeast and make an intriguing target.

In 2010, work performed by our current joint venture partner, North Fork consisted of re-sampling of the drill core from the previous holes, in storage in Bethel, Alaska. A total of 26 samples were selected from intervals where anomalous Au had been reported. All work performed in 2012 related to compiling data for a National Instrument 43-101.

Gold Lake Prospect

The Gold Lake claim group is made up of 69 state mining claims covering approximately 9,720 acres approximately 8 miles west of the Kisa Prospect. The claims cover a broad, bright red, iron oxide stained, northwest trending ridge several miles long and nearly a mile wide adjacent to Gold Lake. The claim group contains at least two generations of crosscutting igneous dikes and sills similar to the Kisa showing and drill targets have been defined at several prospects within the claim package.

TheGossan RidgeTarget consists of a series of banded quartz-sulfide veins associated with a dike-sill swarm that runs along the crest and flanks of rust-colored ridgeline exhibiting heavily iron oxide-staining reflecting weathering and oxidation of widespread disseminated sulfides in the rocks exposed along the ridge. The vein system has an exposed strike length of over 1600 feet and exposed widths up to 150 feet and the alteration zone and lower grade old mineralization is up to 350 feet wide and 4900 feet long with up to 650 feet of exposed vertical extent. Samples from the vein system consistently carry highly anomalous gold and pathfinder elements. The vein system appears to be associated with a series of porphyritic dikes that have produced pervasive and intense hydrothermal alteration of the host sedimentary rocks. The dikes and sills typically contain lower grade

11

gold mineralization, but their widespread presence and intense alteration associated with the igneous rocks throughout the complex suggest the presence of a larger, potentially mineralized igneous body at depth.

During 2007, additional rock and soil sampling was completed and the previously outlined soil anomaly was extended to more than 1 kilometer along strike. Over 51 line-miles of ground magnetics were completed and located a distinctive circular magnetic anomaly adjacent to, and overlapping with the main soil and rock chip anomaly. The magnetic feature extends beneath a glacial drift-filled valley and underlies another prominent alteration zone on the adjacent ridge slopes. Prospecting this feature in 2007 confirmed the presence of quartz-arsenopyrite-stibnite veins and fracture-controlled sulfides potentially indicative of cupola-related mineralization above a buried intrusion. A single 3-mile long, induced polarization and resistivity survey line was run adjacent to the main showing and generated a good IP response over the circular ground magnetics feature. A large area of anomalous gold and intense alteration and the numerous dikes suggests the Gold Lake prospect may overlie a larger potentially mineralized intrusive hosted system at depth.

During 2008, four drill holes were completed totaling 3,227.5 feet and cut thick intervals of moderately to strongly altered and weakly gold mineralized sediments and intrusives. All the holes bottomed in hornfels indicating proximity to a larger intrusive body at depth which is still untested by drilling. Geologic mapping and soil and rock sampling were completed along favorable trends. Detailed sampling and structural analysis indicates the main mineralized zone, exposed on steep nearly inaccessible cliffs, was not completely tested by the 2008 drilling, in part due to difficulties in establishing a stable drill platform on the steep slopes. Detailed continuous rock chip sampling across the mineralized zone exposed on the cliffs outlined a zone approximately 30 meters true thickness averaging 1 part per million (0.029 ounces per ton)

The Golden AlderTarget consists of a linear fault zone exposed along the bottom and valley walls of a small drainage over a strike length of approximately 600 meters. Soils collected over covered areas on the valley walls and adjacent uplands suggests the zone may be as wide as 200 meters. A pronounced circular airborne geophysical anomaly underlies a portion of the fault system and its projection into an alluvium covered area and may represent a leakage halo emanating from a potentially mineralized intrusion at depth over 1.5 parts per million (0.044 ounces per ton) gold. During 2008, additional soil and rock sampling surveys were completed with encouraging results. All work performed in 2012 related to compiling data for a National Instrument 43-101.

BUCKSTOCK PROJECT

All the claims held under the Buckstock Project area are currently part of a Master Earn-in Agreement with North Fork. The agreement was finalized and executed on March 28, 2011.

Summary

In southwest Alaska, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Kisa controls another claim block known as the Company’s Buckstock Project. The claims are called the Chilly group and consist of 44 State of Alaska mining claims covering approximately 7,040 acres. The claims are situated approximately 50 miles southwest of Donlin Creek and 45 miles northeast of Kisa’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project area. Kisa initiated an active and aggressive exploration program in the region as part of a regional program approach expanding on the Company’s results in the Project area. These prospects have been identified through multiple sources including a review and compilation of data from published federal, state and academic manuscripts, published and unpublished geochemical data and corporate proprietary data sets.

Over 1,600 stream sediment, heavy mineral concentrate and rock samples cover the area and the claim groups are staked in areas determined to be prospective as potential source areas for the placer occurrences identified from the company’s proprietary geochemical database. Each of these prospects falls within much larger, poorly defined regional-scale geochemical anomalies that represent district-scale exploration plays.

The project area is underlain by sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Triassic and Cretaceous Gemuk Group; sedimentary rocks of the Cretaceous Kuskokwim Group; and Late Cretaceous and early Tertiary mafic to felsic volcanic rocks, small granitic intrusions, and granite porphyry dikes and sills. Locally there are small accumulations of Quaternary age olivine basalt. The project area lies within a structurally complex flexure zone within a series of crustal-scale wrench faults.

Deformation associated with these faults and splays appears to be at least locally important in the location of both igneous rocks and mineralized showings. Both high level epithermal and deeper-level shallow intrusive and subvolcanic alteration and mineralization systems are present in the project. Initial field follow-up in late 2007 was encouraging with gold showings identified in bedrock on several claim groups.

12

Chilly Prospect

This prospect consists of a semicircular, 25-square mile multi-element stream geochemical anomaly draining a large Late Cretaceous to Early Tertiary, zoned, quartz monzonitic intrusive complex. Highly anomalous arsenic in stream silts outlines this intrusive complex at the regional scale. Placer gold has been found around the flanks of the complex coincident with highly anomalous stream silts containing pathfinder elements. Seven rock chip samples collected from outcrops in the headwaters of the anomalous streams contain anomalous gold.

On May 8, 2008, the Company signed three separate joint venture agreements with Newmont North America Exploration Limited, a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation (”Newmont”). During the joint venture Newmont completed a systematic rock and soil sampling program on the claims in the summer of 2008 and delineated a large gold in soils anomaly on the claim group. However on December 12, 2008, the Company received from Newmont a letter that notified of its intent to terminate the three venture agreements effective immediately.

In 2010, work performed by our current joint venture partner, North Fork consisted of re-sampling of the main soil anomaly and also completed stream sediment sampling surrounding the claim block. During 2011, North Fork planned to complete a detailed helimag survey over the claim block, but this was postponed after several attempts to complete the survey were curtailed by bad weather. Work performed in 2012 was focused mainly on compiling data for a National Instrument 43-101 and preliminary data processing of control tie-lines for the helimag survey.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

In June 2007, the Board of Directors adopted the 2007 Gold Crest Stock Plan (the “Plan”) which was approved by shareholders in December 2007. The purposes of the Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to employees, directors and consultants and to promote the success of the Company’s business.

The maximum number of shares available for issuance pursuant to the Plan adopted by the Company is currently set at 12,000,000 shares of which 4,000,000 may be granted as Incentive Stock Options to employees. As of December 31, 2012, the remaining number of shares available for issuance under the 2007 Stock Plan was 11,450,000.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not issue any new options under the 2007 Stock Plan. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company had 5,280,000 stock options expire with exercise prices ranging from $0.28 to $0.53.  These options had been granted between June 19, 2007 and September 12, 2007 to members of the board of directors, employees and to consultants of the Company.

Overview and Plan of Operation

As discussed in “Note 3. Going Concern” to our consolidated financial statements, the Company has had no revenues and incurred an accumulated deficit of $9,602,076 through December 31, 2012. Another factor is that the Company has a negative current ratio of 0.02: 1 at December 31, 2012. The current ratio is a measurement of the degree to which current assets cover current liabilities (current assets/ current liabilities). A high ratio indicates a good probability the enterprise can retire current debts. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management intends to seek additional capital from new equity securities offerings and joint venture agreements that will provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund internal growth and fully implement its business plan.

We are in the business of exploration, development, and if warranted the mining of properties containing valuable mineral deposits. We are traded on the over the counter market in the United States and, as is typical with such companies, losses are incurred in the stages of exploration and development, which typically need to be funded through equity or debt financing.

In southwest Alaska, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Kisa controls or has interests in nine claim blocks consisting of 274 State of Alaska mining claims covering 42,280 acres.

On March 28, 2011 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kisa, executed a Master Earn-In agreement (“the Agreement”) with North Fork LLC, (“North Fork”) an Alaska limited liability company. This agreement calls for North Fork to explore for gold deposits on Kisa’s claim blocks in the Southwest Kuskokwim Project area and Buckstock Project area (“Projects”). The Projects consist of the Company’s exploration properties mentioned above. See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –North Fork Option Master Earn-in Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

On September 7, 2011, the Company executed a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) to enter into a business combination transaction with Gold Crown, Inc (“Gold Crown”).  On October 17, 2011, in connection with the proposed business combination, affiliates of Gold Crown made a non-refundable $117,659 advance to the Company. The funds were used to settle outstanding accounts payable, engage professionals to conduct due diligence, and initiate procedures and actions with a view toward entering into a definitive business combination agreement. Since discussions with the principals of Gold Crown have terminated, the $117,659 in advances from Gold Crown under the original LOI have been recognized in the statement of operations and is therefore no longer a liability.

On June 5, 2012, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kisa signed a Terms Sheet with Afranex Gold Limited (“Afranex”), a company related to our joint venture partners North Fork, which sets out the terms on which Afranex agrees to acquire 100% of the shares in Kisa. On February 13, 2013 an amendment was signed changing certain terms, most notably, changing the initial acquisition of only 80% of the shares of Kisa with an option to acquire the remaining 20% at any time up to June 30, 2015 for additional consideration.  See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –Afranex Term Sheet” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

On July 26, 2012, the Company signed a Loan Facility Agreement (“Loan”) with Afranex for $15,000, and amendment on October 26, 2012 for an additional $10,000 all received before December 31, 2012. On February 13, 2013 another amendment was signed increasing the loan amount from $25,000 to $80,000.  Per the date of this filing, the Company has received a total of $65,000 leaving another $15,000 still available to withdraw. See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –Afranex Afranex Loan Facility Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

Overview of Operating Results

Operating Expenses

The decrease of $23,729 in operating expenses during the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 was primarily due to approximately $25,000 in legal expenses for the year ended 2011 versus zero in 2012 and approximately $5,000 less in payroll expenses for the year ended 2012 than in the year ended 2011.  These savings were offset slightly due to approximately $7,000 higher audit and accounting fees for the year ended 2012 compared to the year ended 2011 due to the due diligence associated with a possible business combination transaction with Gold Crown, Inc. in early 2012.

Legal and Accounting Expenses

Legal and accounting expenses were $54,435 for the year ended December 31, 2011 versus $35,995 for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a decrease of $18,440.  The decrease in 2012 was primarily due to an extra $25,000 paid in 2011 to a legal firm performing due diligence in connection with the proposed business combination with Gold Crown.  These savings were offset slightly due to approximately $7,000 higher audit and accounting fees for the year ended 2012 compared to the year ended 2011 on account of due diligence associated with the proposed business combination transaction with Gold Crown. See “Note 5. Advances from Gold Crown” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

Directors Fees

The decrease of $2,000 in director’s fees during the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 was due to the fact that the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock to one newly appointed director valued at $2,000 in April of 2011 versus zero in 2012.

General and Administrative

General and Administrative expenses were $64,122 for the year ended December 31, 2011 versus $60,833 for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a decrease of $3,289. The primary reason for the decrease was due to approximately $5,000 more in employee fees for the year ended December 31, 2011 which were a result of increased time involved with the proposed business combination with Gold Crown.

Gain realized from advances from Gold Crown

The increase of $117,659 during the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 is due to the discussions with the principals of Gold Crown terminating, resulting in the $117,659 in advances from Gold Crown under the original LOI (September 7, 2011) being recognized in the statement of operations and therefore no longer a contingent liability.  See “Note 5. Advances from Gold Crown” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

16

Gain on Settlement of Accounts Payable

On September 6, 2011, the Company executed a non-binding letter of intent to enter into a business combination transaction with Gold Crown. On October 17, 2011, in connection with the proposed business combination, affiliates of Gold Crown made a non-refundable $117,659 advance to the Company. A portion of the contributed funds were used to settle outstanding accounts payable for miscellaneous past services that totaled $63,019, including a related party payable for $36,000, for a settlement amount of only $13,500 resulting in a gain on the settlement of accounts payable in the amount of $49,519 in 2011 versus zero in 2012.

Overview of Financial Position

At December 31, 2012, Gold Crest had cash of $1,552 and total current liabilities of $99,292. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company signed a Loan and amendments thereto with Afranex and received advances in the amount of approximately $25,000.  In 2013 the Company increased the potential advance to $80,000 and as of the date of this filing have received a total of $40,000 in additional funds on top of the $25,000 received in 2012.  See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –Afranex Loan Facility Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

 See “Afranex Terms sheet” above for further details.

The Company received the entire proceeds of the Loans in the third and fourth quarters and recorded the funds as a current liability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have limited capital resources and thus have had to rely upon the sale of equity securities for the cash required for exploration and development purposes, for acquisitions and to fund our administration. Since we do not expect to generate any revenues in the near future, we must continue to rely upon the sale of our equity securities to raise capital. There can be no assurance that financing, whether debt or equity, will always be available to us in the amount required at any particular time or for any period or, if available, that it can be obtained on terms satisfactory to us.

Our cash balance at December 31, 2012 was $1,552 versus $24,167 at December 31, 2011. This decrease is primarily due to the fact that during the year ended December 31, 2012, in connection with the advance from Afranex of $25,000 was less than the amount of money spent on our daily operations.

Future Outlook

Based on the current market environment and our low share price it is not likely we will be able to raise enough money through a private placement of our common stock to fully implement our business plan.

We continue to proceed with our joint venture partner, North Fork, who continues to expend funds under the master earn-in agreement and just completed another season of exploration in the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project area.

We are currently also working towards an agreement with Afranex for them to acquire up to 100% of the shares in Kisa which will bring in capital related to the transaction, of which we are currently receiving advances on.  See “Note 4. Mineral Properties –Afranex Term Sheet and Afranex Loan Facility Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements for further details.

Changes in Accounting Policies

We did not change our accounting policies during fiscal 2012 or 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors

Gold Crest Mines, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Gold Crest Mines, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (January 11, 2005) to December 31, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gold Crest Mines, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (January 11, 2005) to December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenue, an accumulated deficit, and a negative current ratio that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1.  Organization and Description of Business

Gold Crest Mines, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Gold Crest” and “the Company”) is a Nevada corporation originally incorporated on August 20, 1968, as Silver Crest Mines, Inc., an Idaho corporation.

On August 1, 2006, Gold Crest acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Niagara Mining and Development Co., (“Niagara”), an Idaho corporation formed on January 11, 2005, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kisa Gold Mining, Inc. (“Kisa”), an Alaskan corporation formed on July 28, 2006. Gold Crest’s sole asset on the merger date was cash of $7,456, which was accounted for as being acquired by Niagara in exchange for 14,600,100 common shares of Niagara. Niagara’s sole asset on the merger date was cash of $150,000 and its wholly owned subsidiary, Kisa. Neither company had liabilities on the date of the merger. This transaction has been treated as a reverse merger, effectively as if Niagara had issued shares for consideration equal to the net monetary assets of Gold Crest. Under reverse acquisition accounting, the consolidated financial statements of the entity are considered a continuation of the financial statements of Niagara, the accounting acquirer. On June 20, 2008, 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Kisa were transferred from Niagara to the Company.

The Company is in the business of exploration, development, and if warranted the mining of properties containing valuable mineral deposits. The focus of the Company’s exploration programs is directed at precious metals, primarily gold.

NOTE 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Consolidation of Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Highly liquid short-term investments with a remaining maturity when purchased of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents in high quality financial institutions.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in those statements and accompanying notes. Examples of areas requiring the use of estimates include the recoverability of mineral property and investments accounted for on the cost basis, assumptions used in determining the fair value of stock-based compensation and the expected economic lives and rates for depreciation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Exploration Stage Enterprise

The Company's financial statements are prepared pursuant to the accounting principles for development stage enterprises as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mining interests that will eventually provide sufficient net profits to sustain the Company’s existence. Until such interests are engaged in major commercial production, the Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the development stage. Mining companies subject to development stage financial statement presentation are required to label their financial statements as an “Exploration Stage Company,” pursuant to guidance provided by SEC Guide 7 for Mining Companies.

Gold Crest Mines, Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Mine Exploration and Development Costs

All exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mine development costs are capitalized after proven and probable reserves have been identified. Amortization is calculated using the units-of-production method over the expected life of the operation based on the estimated recoverable mineral ounces.

Mineral Properties

Significant payments related to the acquisition of mineral properties, mineral rights, and mineral leases are capitalized. If a commercially mineable ore body is discovered, such costs are amortized when production begins using the units-of-production method based on proven and probable reserves. If no commercially mineable ore body is discovered, or such rights are otherwise determined to have no value, such costs are expensed in the period in which it is determined the property has no future economic value.

Property Evaluations

Management of the Company periodically reviews the net carrying value of its properties on a property-by-property basis. These reviews consider the net realizable value of each property to determine whether a permanent impairment in value has occurred and the need for any asset write-down. An impairment loss will be recognized when the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest) expected to result from the use of an asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset. Measurement of an impairment loss will be based on the estimated fair value of the asset if the asset is expected to be held and used.

Although management will make its best estimate of the factors that affect net realizable value based on current conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term which could adversely affect management's estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from its assets, and necessitate asset impairment write-downs.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents approximated their fair values as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Fair Value Accounting

Accounting guidance has established a hierarchy of assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The three levels included in the hierarchy are:

·

Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

·

Level 2: significant other observable inputs

·

Level 3: significant unobservable inputs

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has no assets or liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation by measuring the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted. For stock awards that do not vest immediately, the Company recognizes the compensation expense ratably over the requisite service period of the individual grants, which generally equals the vesting period.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

Net income (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. Diluted net income (loss) per share for the Company is the same as basic net income (loss) per share, as the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2012 the Company had no remaining common stock equivalents. At December 31, 2011, the common stock equivalents consisted of 5,280,000 options exercisable at prices ranging from $0.28 to $0.53 per share.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax liabilities or assets at the end of each period are determined using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes will be actually paid or recovered. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets, if there is uncertainty regarding their realization.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost and depreciated using the straight line method over five to seven years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Betterments of a major nature are capitalized. When assets are retired or sold, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.

Reclamation and Remediation Costs (Asset Retirement Obligations)

The Company had no operating properties at December 31, 2012 and 2011, but the Company’s mineral properties will be subject to standards for mine reclamation that have been established by various governmental agencies. For these non-operating properties, the Company accrues costs associated with environmental remediation obligations when it is probable that such costs will be incurred and they are reasonably estimable. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation are not discounted to their present value. Such costs are based on management's current estimate of amounts that are expected to be incurred when the remediation work is performed within current laws and regulations.

It is reasonably possible that due to uncertainties associated with defining the nature and extent of environmental contamination, application of laws and regulations by regulatory authorities, and changes in remediation technology, the ultimate cost of remediation and reclamation could change in the future. The Company continually reviews its accrued liabilities for such remediation and reclamation costs as evidence becomes available indicating that its remediation and reclamation liability has changed.

For operating properties the Company will recognize the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs will be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the associated long-lived assets and depreciated over the lives of the assets on a units-of-production basis. Reclamation costs will be accreted over the life of the related assets and are adjusted for changes resulting from the passage of time and changes to either the timing or amount of the original present value estimate on the underlying obligation.

NOTE 3. Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has had no revenues and incurred an accumulated deficit of $9,602,076 through December 31, 2012. Another factor is that the Company has a negative current ratio of 0.02: 1 at December 31, 2012. The current ratio is a measurement of the degree to which current assets cover current liabilities (current assets/ current liabilities). A high ratio indicates a good probability the enterprise can retire current debts. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management intends to seek additional capital from new equity securities offerings and joint venture agreements that will provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund internal growth and fully implement its business plan.

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 in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

28

Gold Crest Mines, Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Should the Company be unable to raise capital through future private placements, its business, and, as a result, its financial position, results of operations and cash flow will likely be materially adversely impacted. As such, substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern remains as of the date of these financial statements.

The Company believes it will only need an estimated $150,000 to $200,000 to continue operations through the next twelve months. The timing and amount of capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including the Company’s ability to successfully maintain a joint venture on our Alaska properties and the Company’s future personnel requirements.

NOTE 4.  Mineral Properties

In Alaska, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Kisa controls or has interests in five claim blocks consisting of 274 State of Alaska mining claims covering 42,280 acres. Four of the claim blocks making up 35,240 acres comprise the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project and the remaining claim group consisting of 7,040 acres is the Company’s Buckstock Project. The Southwest Kuskokwim claim blocks are located in southwest Alaska approximately 90 miles east of the village of Bethel on State of Alaska-owned lands. The Buckstock claim group is located approximately 30-80 miles south of the Donlin Creek deposit and north of the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim claim groups.

The following is a summary of the Company’s mineral properties in Alaska:

Alaska Mineral Properties	Number of Claims	Acres	Carrying Value at       December 31, 2012	Carrying Value at December 31,    2011
Southwest Kuskokwim Project
AKO	73	11,680	$               2,543	$           2,543
Luna	50	8,000	-	-
Kisa	38	5,840	3,314	3,314
Gold Lake	69	9,720	5,516	5,516
TOTAL Southwest Kuskokwim Project	230	35,240	$             11,373	$         11,373
Buckstock Project

OVERALL TOTAL	274	42,280	$           11,373	$         11,373

In Alaska, the lands are held under and are subject to the State’s mining laws and regulations. The Company is required to perform certain work commitments and pay annual assessments to the State of Alaska to hold these claims in good standing. The annual work commitment and annual fees were fulfilled and all necessary fees and filings have been made for the season ending September 30, 2012. The commitments and annual assessments for 2013 will be due no later than November 30, 2012. See “Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies”.

North Fork Option Master Earn-in Agreement

On January 27, 2010, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kisa signed an option agreement with North Fork Resources Pty Ltd (“North Fork”) which grants North Fork an exclusive option to purchase and/or earn an interest in the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project area (“The Projects”).

Under the terms of the option, North Fork made a payment to the Company in the amount of $20,000 which was received on February 16, 2010 which was recorded as a deposit on option agreement, for the exclusive right to explore the claims up until October 31, 2010. On August 18, 2010, the Company amended the option agreement to include an additional claim group known as our Chilly claims, which became part of The Projects.

Afranex Terms Sheet

On June 5, 2012, and later amended on August 28, 2012 and again on February 13, 2013, the Company signed a Terms Sheet with Afranex Gold Limited (“Afranex”), a company related to the Company’s joint venture partner North Fork Resources Pty Ltd. On February 26, 2013 the Company signed a new version of the Terms Sheet that fully replaced the previous versions and which sets out the terms on which Afranex agrees to acquire 80% of the shares in Kisa.  Kisa’s only assets include the Company’s Southwest Kuskokwim Project and the Buckstock Project areas which consist of exploration properties in southwest Alaska comprised of 42,280 acres of State of Alaska-owned lands.

The following is a breakdown of the main details of the Terms Sheet, which incorporates the final amendments to the terms sheet:

1.

Consideration:

a.

Afranex agrees to pay Gold Crest the sum of $100,000 (of which $25,000 was advanced to Gold Crest from Afranex as of December 31, 2012 and a total of $50,000 as of the date of this filing), and

b.

10,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of Afranex at an issue price of $0.20 per share, or that number of shares depending on the way Afanex decides to become an ASX-listed company. (Consideration Shares).

c.

2,500,000 unlisted options to be issued fully paid, ordinary shares in Afanex, exercisable at $0.25 per option and expiring four years from the date of grant.

2.

Completion of the Acquisition is conditional on the satisfaction (or waiver by the parties) of the certain conditions precedent such as due diligence by Afranex on Kisa, the approval of the board of Afranex as well as the approval of the shareholders of Gold Crest among other conditions.  If these conditions are not satisfied or waived by June 30, 2013, this term sheet agreement will expire.

3.

Settlement of the Acquisition will occur on that date which is five business days of satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions precedent.  At settlement Afranex will settle the consideration discussed above and Gold Crest will deliver the share certificates in respect of the Kisa Shares.  An agreement that an incorporated joint venture is created between Afranex or Parent and Kisa on the terms and conditions of the joint venture.

4.

Afranex may, by written notice to Gold Crest at any time up to June 30, 2015, elect to acquire all (and not part) of Gold Crest’s remaining fully paid, ordinary Kisa shares in return for the issue of $500,000 worth of Afranex fully paid, ordinary shares if by IPO, or parent shares if Backdoor Listing (Option Shares).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

5.

Notwithstanding the fact that this Terms Sheet is legally binding on the Parties, Afranex and Gold Crest agree to enter into a formal share sale and purchase agreement to more fully document the terms of the Acquisition (to be prepared by Afranex’s solicitors) which shall be on terms acceptable to Kisa and Afranex (acting reasonably) and which shall be consistent with the terms set out in this Terms Sheet.

On March 26, the Company signed a letter of variation to the February 26, 2013 terms sheet, which agreed that if Afanex gives written notice before settlement that it wishes to acquire 100% of the issued shares of Kisa at settlement, that the Consideration Shares will be increased to 12,500,000 and the Consideration Options will be increased to 3,125,000. If this were to happen, there would be no incorporated joint venture established.

Afranex Loan Facility Agreement

On July 26, 2012, the Company signed a Loan Facility Agreement (“Loan”) in the amount of $15,000 with Afranex which entitled the Company to make individual draw downs in $5,000 increments of the Loan until the Loan has been exhausted to provide the Company with immediate working capital requirements.   On October 26, 2012, the Company signed a first deed of variation to the Loan which increased the Loan amount from $15,000 to $25,000.   

Per the terms of the original Loan, the Company agrees to repay the loan in full within six (6) months, extended to January 31, 2013 per the first variation to the Loan, or agrees that the funds will be deducted from the $100,000 cash payment that forms part of the agreed consideration to purchase the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Kisa Gold Mining, Inc.  See “Afranex Terms sheet” above for further details.

The Company received the entire proceeds of the Loans in the third and fourth quarters and recorded the funds as a current liability.

On February 13, 2013, the Company signed a second deed of variation to the Loan which increased the Loan amount from $25,000 to $80,000.   The due date was also extended out to June 30, 2013.  As of the date of this filing, the Company has now received a total of $65,000 of the available $80,000 and has recorded the funds as a current liability.

NOTE 5.  Advances from Gold Crown

On September 7, 2011, the Company executed a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) to enter into a business combination transaction with Gold Crown, Inc (“Gold Crown”).  On October 17, 2011, in connection with the proposed business combination, affiliates of Gold Crown made a non-refundable $117,659 advance to the Company. The funds were used for the following:

·

to settle outstanding accounts payable for past services that totaled $63,019 for a settlement amount of only $13,500 resulting in a gain on the settlement of accounts payable in the amount of $49,519

·

engage professionals to conduct due diligence, and

·

initiate procedures and actions with a view toward entering into a definitive business combination agreement.

The Company recorded the advances as a current liability in 2011 as management believed that while no explicit agreement existed requiring the Company to return the advances if a business combination did not take place, there may be an implied obligation for the Company to perform certain actions and activities in connection with the ultimate determination of whether or not a business combination will take place.  

The LOI had a sixty (60) day no shop clause from the date of the LOI.  The LOI also indicated that within sixty (60) days of the signing of the LOI, the Company and Gold Crown would negotiate and execute a definitive Exchange agreement and related documents and certificates which would have incorporated in more complete detail, the terms from the original LOI.  Subsequently, the sixty (60) days passed without entering into a more definitive Exchange agreement.  The Company is no longer obligated to the LOI and is free to pursue other options that would benefit the Company.  

At this time, the Company has terminated any further discussions with the principals of Gold Crown, but has left open the very remote possibility that Gold Crown would present the following items for renewed discussions:

·

audited financial statements by a PCAOB qualified audit firm

·

complete updated mine engineering and geological reports on Gold Crown’s properties

31

Gold Crest Mines, Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

·

verify that adequate financing is in place

·

verify that a qualified slate of officers and directors have been retained

·

prepare a professional five year projection with verifiable numbers in regard to future production amounts, revenue costs, expenses, annual tonnage of ore to be mined and milled, etc.

If the Gold Crown personnel supplied the aforementioned documents, the board of directors of Gold Crest may then review and evaluate such a proposal.  However, Gold Crest is actively pursuing other potential merger candidates.  Since discussions with the principals of Gold Crown have terminated, the $117,659 in advances from Gold Crown under the original LOI have been recognized in the statement of operations in 2012 and is therefore no longer a liability.

NOTE 6.  Common Stock and Common Stock Warrants

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of its common stock. All shares of common stock are equal to each other with respect to voting, liquidation, dividend, and other rights. Owners of shares are entitled to one vote for each share owned at any Shareholders’ meeting. The common stock of the Company does not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the shares voting in an election of directors may elect all of the directors if they choose to do so.

There were no issuances of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2012.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company had the following issuances of common stock:

On February 22, 2011 the Company began a private placement offering up to a maximum of 2,500,000 shares at $0.01 per share for a maximum of $25,000 in proceeds. The private placement closed on June 30, 2011 and at such time the Company issued 900,000 shares raising a total of $9,000. The shares were being offered and sold by officers and directors of the Company who received no remuneration for the sale of the shares.

On April 22, 2011 the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock to a newly appointed director valued at $2,000.

Common Stock Warrants

There was no warrant activity during 2012 and no warrants were outstanding at December 31, 2012 or 2011.

NOTE 7.  Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock is entitled to preference over the common stock with respect to the distribution of assets of the Company in the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or in the event of any other distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs. The authorized but un-issued shares of Preferred Stock may be divided into and issued in designated series from time to time by one or more resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors. The Directors in their sole discretion have the power to determine the preferences, limitations, and relative rights of each series of Preferred Stock within the limits set forth in the Nevada Business Corporation Act. At December 31, 2012, no preferred stock has been issued.

NOTE 8.  Stock Based Compensation

Stock Based Compensation Plans

In June 2007, the Board of Directors adopted the 2007 Gold Crest Stock Plan (the “Plan”) which was approved by shareholders in December 2007. The purposes of the Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to employees, directors and consultants and to promote the success of the Company’s business.

The maximum number of shares available for issuance pursuant to the Plan adopted by the Company is currently set at 12,000,000 shares of which 4,000,000 may be granted as Incentive Stock Options to employees. As of December 31, 2012, the remaining number of shares available for issuance under the 2007 Stock Plan was 11,450,000.

Stock Options

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not issue any new options under the 2007 Stock Plan. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company had 5,280,000 stock options expire with exercise prices ranging from $0.28 to $0.53.  These options had been granted between June 19, 2007 and September 12, 2007 to members of the board of directors, employees and to consultants of the Company.

The following is a summary of stock option activity from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012:

	Number of Shares Under Options	Weighted Average  Exercise Price

NOTE 9.  Income Taxes

The Company did not recognize a provision (benefit) for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had deferred tax assets principally arising from the net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes multiplied by an expected rate of 34%. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has be established at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The significant components of the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

	December 31, 2012			December 31, 2011
Deferred tax asset
Net operating loss carry forward	$	1,942,000		$	1,843,000
Exploration costs and other		726,000			832,000
Stock based compensation		397,000			397,000
		3,065,000			3,072,000
Deferred tax asset valuation allowance		(3,065,000	)		(3,072,000	)
Net deferred tax asset	$	—		$	—

At December 31, 2012 and 2011 the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $5,712,000 and $5,421,000 respectively, which expire in the years 2023 through 2032.

The income tax benefit shown in the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 differs from the federal statutory rate as follows:

	December 31, 2012			December 31, 2011
(Provisions) Benefit at federal statutory rate	$	(7,000	)	$	24,000
Change  in valuation allowance		7,000			(24,000	)
Total provision	$	0		$	0

The Company has analyzed its filing positions in all jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns and found no positions that would require a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits to be recognized.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

We have determined that we are subject to examination of our income tax filings in the United States and state jurisdictions for the 2010 through 2012 tax years. In the event that the Company is assessed penalties and or interest, penalties will be charged to other operating expense and interest will be charged to interest expense.

NOTE 10.  Related Party Transactions

There were no related party transactions during the year ended December 31, 2012.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the following related party transaction occurred:

On June 1, 2007, the Company entered into a twenty-one month consulting agreement with Janice Duval, the wife of Frank Duval, who, up until November 3, 2009, was a greater than 5% shareholder, for professional services to be rendered to the Company. The agreement was for $3,000 per month for twenty-one months ending February 2009. At December 31, 2010 the total outstanding payable due Mrs. Duval was $36,000. In connection with the advance from Gold Crown Inc. (See note 6) an agreement was reached with Mrs. Duval to settle the $36,000 outstanding balance due her for $10,000.

NOTE 11.  Commitments and Contingencies

Alaska Mineral Property Rent and Assessment Work Commitments

In Alaska, land holdings consist of state mining claims and prospecting sites totaling 42,280 acres of land. Annual rental payments in the amount of $65,835 for these claims are due by November 30, 2013. If these rental payments are not paid by the due date, the claims will be considered abandoned. The annual rental payments that were due on November 30, 2012 were paid in full by the Company’s joint venture partner.

The Alaska Department of Natural Resources, Division of Mining, Land & Water requires that upon the prospecting, and the discovery of a locatable mineral and the staking of mineral location, annual labor must be performed on the location each labor year in further development of the locatable mineral so that it can be mined.

ITEM 9A

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us is accumulated and communicated to our management (including our CEO and CFO), were effective as of December 31, 2012, in ensuring them in a timely manner that material information required to be disclosed in this report has been properly recorded, processed, summarized and reported.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud that could occur. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. 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. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Management assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, the end of our fiscal year. Management based its assessment on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Based on our assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective, as of the end of the fiscal year, for a company of our size, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

35

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
