SUMMARY OF OUR OFFERING
Our business
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 8, 2006. We are an exploration stage corporation. We do not own any interest in any property, but merely have the right to conduct exploration activities on one property. The SM property consists of one located mineral claim comprising a total of nine contiguous cells. The property area is situated four air miles southwest of the Town of Osoyoos, British Columbia. The property lies in the Okanogan Region, British Columbia, Canada.
We intend to explore for gold on the property. Our exploration program should take approximately 365 days, weather permitting. If we do not find mineralized material on the property, we do not know what we will do.
Our administrative office is located at 9567 Nairn Place, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada V3V 6Y4 and our telephone number is (604) 805-3438 and our registered statutory office is located at 6100 Neil Road, Suite 500, Reno, Nevada 89015. Our fiscal year end is June 30. Our mailing address is 9567 Nairn Place, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada V3V 6Y4.

RISK FACTORS
Please consider the following risk factors before deciding to invest in our common stock.
Risks associated with Everest Resources Corp.:
1. Because our auditors have issued a going concern opinion, there is substantial uncertainty we will continue activities in which case you could lose your investment.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. As such we may have to cease activities and you could lose your investment.
2.Because the probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves is extremely remote, any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost.
The probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves is extremely remote. In all probability, the property does not contain any reserves. As such, any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost which result in a loss of your investment.
3.Our management has limited technical training and experience in mineral activities and consequently our activities, earnings and ultimate financial success could be irreparably harmed.
Our management has limited technical training and experience with exploring for, starting, and operating a mine. With no direct training or experience in these areas, management may not be fully aware of many of the specific requirements related to working within the industry. Management’s decisions and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches mineral exploration companies commonly use. Consequently, our activities, earnings and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable harm due to management’s lack of experience in the industry.
-6-
4.We lack an operating history and have losses which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease activities.
We were incorporated in November 2006 and we have not started our proposed business activities or realized any revenues. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our net loss since inception is $9,785. The loss was a result of the payment of fees for staking our claims, incorporation, legal and accounting fees. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:
| * | our ability to generate revenues |
| * | our ability to reduce exploration costs |
| * | our ability to locate an ore body |
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods. This will happen because there are expenses associated with the research and exploration of our mineral properties. As a result, we may not generate revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to suspend or cease activities.
5.Because we will have to spend additional funds to determine if we have a reserve, if we can’t raise the money we will have to cease operations and you could lose your investment.
Even if we complete our current exploration program and are successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit, a reserve.
6.Because our management only has limited technical training or experience in exploring for, starting and operating an exploration program, management’s decisions and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches mineral exploration companies commonly use. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease activities which will result in the loss of your investment.
Our management has limited experience with exploring for, starting, and operating an exploration program. Further, our management has no direct training or experience in these areas and as a result may not be fully aware of many of the specific requirements related to working within the industry. Management’s decisions and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches mineral exploration companies commonly use. Consequently our activities, earnings and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable harm due to management’s lack of experience in this industry. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease activities which will result in the loss of your investment.
7. Our geologist has been an officer, director or geolist for several companies that have not moved forward with exploration activities.
James McLeod, the geologist we hired to register our property, has been an officer, director or geologist for over twenty companies, most of which have not moved forward with exploration activities, and five of which have changed businesses and completely abandoned exploration activities.
-7-
8.Weather interruptions in the province of British Columbia may affect and delay our proposed exploration activities.
Our proposed exploration work can only be performed approximately six to seven months out of the year. This is because rain and snow cause the roads leading to our claims to be impassible during five to six months of the year. When roads are impassible, we are unable to conduct exploration activities on the property.
9.Because we are small and do no have much capital, we may have to limit our exploration activity which may result in a loss of your investment.
Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our exploration activity. As such we may not be able to complete an exploration program that is as thorough as we would like. In that event, an existing reserve may go undiscovered. Without a reserve, we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.
10.We may not have access to all of the supplies and materials we need to begin exploration which could cause us to delay or suspend activities.
Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies, such as dynamite, and certain equipment such as bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration. We have not attempted to locate or negotiate with any suppliers of products, equipment or materials. We will attempt to locate products, equipment and materials after this offering is complete. If we cannot find the products and equipment we need, we will have to suspend our exploration plans until we do find the products and equipment we need.
11.Because title to the property is held in the name of another person, if he transfers the property to someone other than us, we will cease activities.
Title to the property upon which we intend to conduct exploration activities is not held in our name. Title to the property is recorded in the name of Gary Sidhu. If Mr. Sidhu transfers the property to a third person, the third person will obtain good title and we will have nothing. If that happens we will be harmed in that we will not own any property and we will have to cease activities. We believe if Mr. Sidhu transfers title to a third party, we will not have any claim against Mr. Sidhu. Under British Columbia law, title to British Columbia mineral claims can only be held by British Columbia residents. In the case of corporations, title must be held by a British Columbia corporation. In order to comply with the law, we would have to incorporate a British Columbia wholly owned subsidiary corporation and obtain audited financial statements. We believe those costs would be a waste of our money at this time because the legal costs of incorporating a subsidiary corporation, the accounting costs of audited financial statements for the subsidiary corporation, together with the legal and accounting costs of expanding this registration statement would cost several thousands of dollars. Accordingly, we have elected not to create the subsidiary at this time, but will do so if mineralized material is discovered on the property.

Risks associated with this offering:
12. Because all of our assets and our officers and our sole director are located outside the United States of America, it may be difficult for an investor to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our officers and director.
All of our assets are located outside of the United States and we do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, our officers and sole director are nationals and residents of a country other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process or enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against our officers and sole director, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Canada and other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our officers and sole director predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the secur ities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in Canada or other jurisdictions against us or our officers and sole director predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.
13.Because there is no public trading market for our common stock, you may not be able to resell your stock.
There is currently no public trading market for our common stock. Therefore there is no central place, such as stock exchange or electronic trading system to resell your shares. If you do want to resell your shares, you will have to locate a buyer and negotiate your own sale.
14.Because we may issue additional shares of common stock, your investment could be subject to substantial dilution.
We anticipate that any additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. In the future, if we do sell more common stock, your investment could be subject to dilution. Dilution is the difference between what you pay for your stock and the net tangible book value per share immediately after the additional shares are sold by us.
15.Because our securities are subject to penny stock rules, you may have difficulty reselling your shares.
Our shares as penny stocks are covered by section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell the Company’s securities including the delivery of a standardized disclosure document; disclosure and confirmation of quotation prices; disclosure of compensation the broker/dealer receives; and, furnishing monthly account statements. For sales of our securities, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination and receive from its customer a written agreement prior to making a sale. The imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices could adversely affect a shareholder’s ability to dispose of his stock.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock in this offering.All proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock will be received by the selling shareholders.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The price of the shares has been determined by our board of directors. We selected the $0.05 price the sale of our shares of common stock. Currently there is no market for the shares and we wanted to give our shareholders the ability to sell their shares for the price they paid us. If our shares are listed for trading on the Bulletin Board, the price of the shares will be established by the market.
DILUTION
Since all of the shares of common stock being registered are already issued and outstanding, no dilution will result from this offering.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
There are forty-four selling shareholders. They may be deemed underwriters. They may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions:
| 1. | On such public markets or exchanges as the common stock may from time to time be trading; |
| 2. | In privately negotiated transactions; |
| 3. | Through the writing of options on the common stock; |
| 4. | In short sales; or |
| 5. | In any combination of these methods of distribution. |
The sales price to the public is fixed at $0.05 per share until such time as the shares of our common stock become traded on the Bulletin Board operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or another exchange. If our common stock becomes quoted on the Bulletin Board or another exchange, then the sales price to the public will vary according to the selling decisions of each selling shareholder and the market for our stock at the time of resale. In these circumstances, the sales price to the public may be:
| 1. | The market price of our common stock prevailing at the time of sale; |
| 2. | A price related to such prevailing market price of our common stock; or |
| 3. | Such other price as the selling shareholders determine from time to time. |
-10-
The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 144. The selling shareholders may also sell their shares directly to market makers acting as principals or brokers or dealers, who may act as agent or acquire the common stock as a principal. Any broker or dealer participating in such transactions as agent may receive a commission from the selling shareholders, or, if they act as agent for the purchaser of such common stock, from such purchaser. The selling shareholders will likely pay the usual and customary brokerage fees for such services. Brokers or dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share and, to the extent such broker or dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for the selling shareholders, to purchase, as principal, any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the respective br oker's or dealer's commitment to the selling shareholders. Brokers or dealers who acquire shares as principals may thereafter resell such shares from time to time in transactions in a market or on an exchange, in negotiated transactions or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices, and in connection with such re-sales may pay or receive commissions to or from the purchasers of such shares. These transactions may involve cross and block transactions that may involve sales to and through other brokers or dealers.
We can provide no assurance that all or any of the common stock offered will be sold by the selling shareholders. We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock, estimated to be $30,000. The selling shareholders, however, will pay commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock. The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things:
1. Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock;
2. Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be offered, such as copies ofthis prospectus, as amended from time to time, as may be required by such broker or dealer; and
3. Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
There is no assurance that any of the selling shareholders will sell any or all of the shares offered by them. Under the securities laws of certain states, the shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in that state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is met.
Of the 6,600,000 shares of common stock outstanding as of August 17, 2007, 5,000,000 are owned by our officers and directors and may only be resold pursuant to this registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.
We have not declared any cash dividends, nor do we intend to do so. We are not subject to any legal restrictions respecting the payment of dividends, except that they may not be paid to render us insolvent. Dividend policy will be based on our cash resources and needs and it is anticipated that all available cash will be needed for our operations in the foreseeable future.

Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act
Our shares are covered by section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6, and 15g-9 promulgated thereunder. They impose additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses).
Rule 15g-1 exempts a number of specific transactions from the scope of the penny stock rules.
Rule 15g-2 declares unlawful broker/dealer transactions in penny stocks unless the broker/dealer has first provided to the customer a standardized disclosure document.
Rule 15g-3 provides that it is unlawful for a broker/dealer to engage in a penny stock transaction unless the broker/dealer first discloses and subsequently confirms to the customer current quotation prices or similar market information concerning the penny stock in question.
Rule 15g-4 prohibits broker/dealers from completing penny stock transactions for a customer unless the broker/dealer first discloses to the customer the amount of compensation or other remuneration received as a result of the penny stock transaction.
Rule 15g-5 requires that a broker/dealer executing a penny stock transaction, other than one exempt under Rule 15g-1, disclose to its customer, at the time of or prior to the transaction, information about the salesperson’s compensation.
Rule 15g-6 requires broker/dealers selling penny stocks to provide their customers with monthly account statements.
Rule 15g-9 requires broker/dealers to approve the transaction for the customer’s account; obtain a written agreement from the customer setting forth the identity and quantity of the stock being purchased; obtain from the customer information regarding his investment experience; make a determination that the investment is suitable for the investor; deliver to the customer a written statement for the basis for the suitability determination; notify the customer of his rights and remedies in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the NASD's toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons.
The application of the penny stock rules may affect your ability to resell your shares.

BUSINESS
General
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 8, 2006. We are an exploration stage corporation. We do not own any interest in any property, but merely have the right to conduct exploration activities on one property we call the SM mineral claim. The SM mineral claim is comprised of nine contiguous cells totaling 471 acres. The mineral claim area is located at latitude 49° 0’ 30" N and longitude is 119° 33’ 30" W. The property is motor vehicle accessible from the Town of Osoyoos, British Columbia by traveling two miles west along Highway #3 and then traveling south past Kilpoola Lake for approximately 4.5 miles by gravel ranch roads to the property. We intend to explore for gold on the property. Our exploration program should take approximately 365 days, weather permitting. If we do not find mineralized material on the property, we do not know what we will do.
We have no plans to change our business activities or to combine with another business, and are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause us to change our plans. Currently, we do not intend to acquire other interests in any other mineral properties. Our business plan is solely to explore one mineral property. If we are successful in our initial endeavors, we may look at other exploration situations.
Background
In June 2006, Gary Sidhu, our president and sole member of the board of directors acquired one mineral property containing nine Mineral Titles Online cells in British Columbia, Canada. British Columbia allows a mineral explorer to claim a portion of available Crown lands as its exclusive area for exploration by registering the claim area on the British Columbia Mineral Titles Online system. The Mineral Titles Online system is the Internet-based British Columbia system used to register, maintain and manage the claims. A cell is an area which appears electronically on the British Columbia Internet Minerals Titles Online Grid and was formerly called a claim. A claim is a grant from the Crown of the available land within the cells to the holder to remove and sell minerals. The online grid is the geographical basis for the cell. Formerly, the claim was established by sticking stakes in the ground to define the a rea and then recording the staking information. The staking system is now antiquated in British Columbia and has been replaced with the online grid. The property was registered by James McLeod, a Vancouver geologist and a non-affiliated third party. Mr. McLeod is a self-employed contract staker and field worker residing in Vancouver, British Columbia.
The claim is recorded in the name of Mr. Sidhu, one of our officers and directors, to avoid paying additional fees. Mr. McLeod suggested that the property be held in Mr. Sidhu’s name and we concurred therein. The property was selected by Mr. Sidhu after consulting with Mr. McLeod. Mr. McLeod was paid $4,500 to register the claim. No money was paid to Mr. Sidhu to hold the claim. No money will be paid to Mr. Sidhu to transfer the property to us. Mr. Sidhu has executed a declaration of trust wherein he has agreed to hold the property for us and will deliver title upon our demand. Mr. Sidhu has not provided us with a signed or executed bill of sale in our favor as of the date of this prospectus. Mr. Sidhu will issue a bill of sale to a subsidiary corporation to be formed by us should mineralized material be discovered on the property.
-13-
Under British Columbia law, title to British Columbia mineral claims can only be held by British Columbia residents. In the case of corporations, title must be held by a British Columbia corporation. Since we are an American corporation, we can never possess legal title to the land. In order to comply with the law we would have to incorporate a British Columbia wholly owned subsidiary corporation and obtain audited financial statements. We believe those costs would be a waste of our money at this time because the legal costs of incorporating a subsidiary corporation, the accounting costs of audited financial statements for the subsidiary corporation, together with the legal and accounting costs of expanding this registration statement would cost several thousands of dollars. Accordingly, we have elected not to create the subsidiary at this time, but will do so if mineralized material is discovered on the pr operty.
In the event that we find mineralized material and the mineralized material can be economically extracted, we will form a wholly owned British Columbia subsidiary corporation and Mr. Sidhu will convey title to the property to the wholly owned subsidiary corporation. Should Mr. Sidhu transfer title to another person and that deed is recorded before we record our documents, that other person will have superior title and we will have none. If that event occurs, we will have to cease or suspend activities and we will have no cause of action against Mr. Sidhu. Mr. Sidhu has agreed verbally with us not to cause the title to pass to another entity. To date we have not performed any work on the property.
All Canadian lands and minerals which have not been granted to private persons are owned by either the federal or provincial governments in the name of Her Majesty Elizabeth II. Ungranted minerals are commonly known as Crown minerals. Ownership rights to Crown minerals are vested by the Canadian Constitution in the province where the minerals are located. In the case of the Company’s property, that is the province of British Columbia.
In the nineteenth century, the practice of reserving the minerals from fee simple Crown grants was established. Legislation now ensures that minerals are reserved from Crown land dispositions. The result is that the Crown is the largest mineral owner in Canada, both as the fee simple owner of Crown lands and through mineral reservations in Crown grants. Most privately held mineral titles are acquired directly from the Crown. Our property is one such acquisition. Accordingly, fee simple title to our property resides with the Crown. That means that the Crown owns the surface and minerals.
Our claim is a mineral lease issued pursuant to the British Columbia Mineral Act. The lessee has exclusive rights to mine and recover all of the minerals contained within the surface boundaries of the lease continued vertically downward.
The property is unencumbered, that is there are no claims, liens, charges or liabilities against the property, and there are no competitive conditions, that is the action of some unaffiliated third party, that could affect the property. Further, there is no insurance covering the property and we believe that no insurance is necessary since the property is unimproved and contains no buildings or improvements.
To date we have not performed any work on the property. Accordingly, there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit, a reserve, exists in the property; in fact, the likelihood that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists is remote.
There are no native land claims that affect title to the property. We have no plans to try to interest other companies in the property if mineralization is found. If mineralization is found, we will try to develop the property ourselves.

Mr. McLeod suggested purchasing the claim to Mr. Sidhu. Mr. Sidhu, after reviewing the matter with Mr. McLeod, agreed and accordingly it was decided to proceed with the project as discussed herein.
Claims
The following is a list of tenure numbers, claim, date of recording and expiration date of our claims:
Tenure No. | Name | Owner | Expiration |
547508 | SM | Gary Sidhu | December 15, 2007 |
The property was selected because gold and platinum have been discovered in the area.
The property consists of one mineral claim comprising a total of 12 cells.

Location and Access
The SM property mineral claim is comprised of nine contiguous cells totaling 471 acres. The property is located at latitude is 49° 0’ 30" N and longitude 119° 33’ 30" W. The claim is motor vehicle accessible from the Town of Osoyoos, British Columbia by traveling 2 miles west along Highway #3 and then traveling south past Kilpoola Lake for approximately 4.5 miles by gravel ranch roads to the mineral claim.
The property is accessible by traveling west of the Town of Osoyoos, British Columbia, on Provincial Highway #3 for two miles to the Blue and Kilpoola Lakes cut-off. At this point a gravel ranch road traveling south is taken for 4.5 miles to the property.
The Town of Osoyoos, British Columbia which lies seven miles by road east of the mineral claim offers much of the necessary infrastructure required to base and carry-out an exploration program such as accommodations, communications, some equipment and supplies. Osoyoos, British Columbia is highway accessible from Vancouver, British Columbia in a few hours by traveling 300 miles over the Hope-Princeton Provincial Highway #3. The overnight Greyhound bus service is a popular way to send-in samples and to receive specialty equipment and supplies.
Physiography
The property lies within the Dry Interior Belt of British Columbia and experiences about 15" of precipitation annually of which about 20% may occur as a snow equivalent. The summers can experience hot weather while the winters are generally mild and last from December through March.
Much of the Okanogan Plateau area hosts patchy conifer cover of western yellow pine (ponderosa pine) and Douglas fir mingled with open range and deciduous groves of aspen and cottonwood. The general area supports a modestly active logging industry. Mining holds an historical and contemporary place in the development and economic well being of the area. Many exploration projects are underway in the general area.
The property area ranges in elevation from 2,600 feet to 3,200 feet above sea level. The physiographic setting of the property can be described as moderately rounded, open range, plateau terrain that has been surficially altered both by the erosional and the depositional (drift cover) effects of glaciation. Thickness of drift cover in the valleys may vary considerably. The property area lies on the western side of the Okanogan valley containing a series of north to south draining, large freshwater lakes. In the immediate area of the mineral claim there are occurrences of a number of small freshwater lakes and mineral-rich potholes.
Regional Geology
The general property area is underlain by northwest trending metamorphic rocks assigned to the Kobau Group thought to be of Carboniferous period age. These units occur mainly as quartzite, schist and greenstone and appear mainly derived from sedimentary rocks. These older units are cut in many places by Jurassic-Cretaceous aged Nelson Plutonic Rocks that exhibit a wide range in composition.

Local Geology
The property is situated in the Intermontane Belt of south-western British Columbia at the southern-end of the Thompson plateau. The oldest rocks observed in the local area are those of the Paleozoic era, Carboniferous period age Kobau Group. These units are observed to be in contact with or intruded by younger Nelson Plutonic Rocks.
Property Geology
The geology of the property may be described as being underlain by metamorphic units of the Kobau Group that are observed to be intruded by Nelson Plutonic Rocks mainly as syenites. Some or all of these units may be found to host economic mineralization.
Mineralization
Within the general area there appears pyrite-pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite mineralization as mesothermal replacements or vein-type of occurrences that lie peripheral to the porphyry-type occurrence in the enclosing and underlying intrusives and the overlying volcanic tuffs (volcanic skarn). These occurrences appear in the massive volcanic units and in medium grain-sized intrusive rock within steeply dipping to vertical fissure/fault zones with some dissemination in the adjacent wallrock. Alteration accompanying the pyritization appears as epidote-chlorite-calcite-(sericite)-magnetite, or a propylitic alteration assemblage.
History of Previous Work
To our knowledge, there has never been exploration activity on the property.
Our Proposed Exploration Program
We are prospecting for gold. Our target is mineralized material. Our success depends upon finding mineralized material. Mineralized material is a mineralized body which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. If we do not find mineralized material or we cannot remove mineralized material, either because we do not have the money to do it or because it is not economically feasible to do it, we will cease activities and you will lose your investment. We plan to be able to delineate a mineralized body, if one exists. If our initial exploration program, within nine months of beginning exploration.
We do not own any interest in any property, but merely have the right to conduct exploration activities on one property.
In addition, we may not have enough money to complete our exploration of the property. If it turns out that we have not raised enough money to complete our exploration program, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or loans. At the present time, we have not made any plans to raise additional money and there is no assurance that we would be able to raise additional money in the future. If we need additional money and cannot raise it, we will have to suspend or cease activities.
-20-
We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on the property and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.
The property is undeveloped raw land. Detailed exploration and surveying has not been initiated and will not be initiated until we raise money in this offering. That is because we do not have money to start exploration. Once the offering is concluded, we intend to start exploration activities. To our knowledge, no previous exploration activities have taken place on the property. The only event that has occurred is the registration of the property by Mr. McLeod and a physical examination of the property. Mr. McLeod examined the surface and took samples. The samples did not reveal anything other than the samples were sedimentary rock containing quartz. We have not developed any quality assurance/quality control protocols for our exploration program. We are small and are just trying to find out what is beneath the surface of the property. Mr. McLeod used a hammer, pick and sack to take samples. While Mr. McLeo d is a geologist, he is not an engineer, and accordingly his area of expertise is limited to geological matters. Mr. McLeod did not use any previous filed reports on the property. Before mineral retrieval can begin, we must explore for and find mineralized material. After that has occurred we have to determine if it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material. Economically feasible means that the costs associated with the removal of the mineralized material will not exceed the price at which we can sell the mineralized material. We cannot predict what that will be until we find mineralized material.
We do not know if we will find mineralized material.
Our exploration program is designed to economically explore and evaluate the property.
We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any of the property.
We intend to conduct exploration activities as follows:
1. Retain our consultant to manage the exploration of the property. Detailed prospecting mineralization mapping, followed by soil sampling and analyses. This phase may take up to two months to complete. The cost estimate for this activity, including retaining our consultant is estimated to be $7,500.00.
2. Next we intend we intend to conduct magnetometer and electromagnetic, grid controlled surveys over the areas of interest as determined by the soil sampling and analysis. This program is expected to take three months to complete. Included in this estimated cost are transportation, accommodation, board, grid installation, both of the geophysical surveys, maps and report. The cost is anticipated to be $7,500.00.
3. Finally, we intend to induced polarization survey over grid controlled anomalous areas of interest outlined by the above fieldwork. Core drilling to follow. We plan to drill 15 holes to a depth of 100 feet. The total cost will be $30,000. Core drilling will be subcontracted to non-affiliated third parties. No power source is needed for core drilling. The drilling rig operates on diesel fuel. All electric power needed, for light and heating while on the property will be generated from gasoline powered generators. We intend to have an independent third party analyze the samples from the core drilling. Determine if mineralized material is below the ground. If mineralized material is found, define the body. We estimate that it will cost $4,500 to analyze the core samples and will take 30 days. This program is estimated to take one month to complete and includes assays, detailed maps and reports. We have allocated $45,000.00 for this phase.
-21-
We intend to implement an exploration program which primarily consists of core sampling. Core sampling is the process of drilling holes to a depth of up to 100 feet in order to extract a samples of earth. Mr. Sidhu and the consultant we hire will determine where drilling will occur on the property. The samples will be tested to determine if mineralized material is located on the property. Based upon the tests of the core samples, we will determine if we will terminate activities; proceed with additional exploration of the property; or develop the property. The proceeds from this offering are designed to only fund the costs of core sampling and testing. We intend to take our core samples to Geoterrex Limited, analytical chemists, geochemists and registered assayers located in Toronto, Ontario. Neither we nor our officers or directors have any affiliation with Geoterrex. Geoterrex is a registered assayer.
We estimate the cost of core sampling will be $20 per foot drilled. A drilling rig is required to take the core samples. The cost of the drilling rig is included in the drilling cost per foot. We will drill approximately 1,500 linear feet or fifteen holes. We estimate that it will take up to three months to drill the holes to a depth of 100 feet. We will pay an exploration consultant up to a maximum of $5,000 per month for his services during the three month period or a total of $15,000. The consultant will be responsible for managing the project, supervising the core sampling, and hiring subcontractors to perform work on the property. Our employees will not have involvement in the work performed, but will be overseeing everything. The total cost for analyzing the core samples will be $3,000.
The breakdown of estimated times and dollars was made by Mr. Sidhu in consultation with Mr. McLeod.
We do not intend to interest other companies in the property if we find mineralized materials. We intend to try to develop the reserves ourselves.
If we are unable to complete exploration because we do not have enough money, we will cease activities until we raise more money. If we cannot or do not raise more money, we will cease activities. If we cease activities, we don't know what we will do and we don't have any plans to do anything else.
We cannot provide you with a more detailed discussion of how our exploration program will work and what we expect will be our likelihood of success. That is because we have a piece of raw land and we intend to look for mineralized material. We may or may not find any mineralized material. We hope we do, but it is impossible to predict the likelihood of such an event.
We do not have any plan to make our company to revenue generation. That is because we have not found economic mineralization yet and it is impossible to project revenue generation from nothing.
We anticipate starting exploration operation in the fall of 2007, weather permitting.
If we do not find mineralized material on the property, Mr. Sidhu will allow the claim to expire and we will cease activities. We do not know what we will do with our corporation if we do not find mineralized material.

Competitive Factors
The gold mining industry is fragmented. We compete with other exploration companies looking for gold. We are one of the smallest exploration companies in existence. We are an infinitely small participant in the gold mining market. While we compete with other exploration companies, there is no competition for the exploration or removal or mineral from our property. Readily available gold markets exist in Canada and around the world for the sale of gold. Therefore, we will be able to sell any gold that we are able to recover.
Regulations
Our mineral exploration program is subject to the British Columbia Mineral Tenure Act Regulation. This act sets forth rules for
| * | locating claims |
| * | working claims |
| * | reporting work performed |
We are also subject to the British Columbia Mineral Exploration Code which tells us how and where we can explore for minerals. We must comply with these laws to operate our business. Compliance with these rules and regulations will not adversely affect our activities. These regulations will not impact our exploration activities. The only current costs we anticipate at this time are reclamation costs. Reclamation costs are the costs of restoring the property to its original condition should mineralized material not be found. We estimate that it will cost between $1,000 and $2,000 to restore the property to its original condition, should mineralized material not be found. The variance is based upon the number of holes that are drilled by us.
Environmental Law
We are also subject to the Health, Safety and Reclamation Code for Mines in British Columbia. This code deals with environmental matters relating to the exploration and development of mineral properties. Its goals are to protect the environment through a series of regulations affecting:
| 1. | Health and Safety |
| 2. | Archaeological Sites |
| 3. | Exploration Access |
We are responsible to provide a safe working environment, not disrupt archaeological sites, and conduct our activities to prevent unnecessary damage to the property.
-23-
We will secure all necessary permits for exploration and, if development is warranted on the property, will file final plans of operation before we start any mineral activities. We anticipate no discharge of water into active stream, creek, river, lake or any other body of water regulated by environmental law or regulation. No endangered species will be disturbed. Restoration of the disturbed land will be completed according to law. All holes, pits and shafts will be sealed upon abandonment of the property. It is difficult to estimate the cost of compliance with the environmental law since the full nature and extent of our proposed activities cannot be determined until we start our activities and know what that will involve from an environmental standpoint.
We are in compliance with the Act and will continue to comply with the Act in the future. We believe that compliance with the act will not adversely affect our business activities in the future.
Exploration stage companies have no need to discuss environmental matters, except as they relate to exploration activities. The only “cost and effect” of compliance with environmental regulations in British Columbia is returning the surface to its previous condition upon abandonment of the property. We cannot speculate on those costs in light of our ongoing plans for exploration. When we are ready to drill, we will notify the British Columbia Inspector of Mines. He will require a bond to be put in place to assure that the property will be restored to its original condition. We have estimated the cost of restoring the property to be between $1,000 to $2,000, depending upon the number of holes drilled.
Subcontractors
We intend to use the services of subcontractors for manual labor exploration work on our properties. We have not retained anyone to conduct our exploration work at this time.
Employees and Employment Agreements
At present, we have no employees, other than our officers and directors. Mr. Sidhu our president, will devote full time to our operations. Mr. Dhami, our vice president, will devote about 10% of his time to our operation. Our officers do not have employment agreements with us. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits available to our officers. Mr. Sidhu will handle our administrative duties. Because Messrs. Sidhu and Dhami are inexperienced with exploration, Mr. Sidhu will hire qualified persons to perform the surveying, exploration, and excavating of our property. As of today, we have not looked for or talked to any geologists or engineers who will perform work for us in the future.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
This section of the prospectus includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or out predictions.
We are a start-up, exploration stage corporation and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business activities.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we begin removing and selling minerals. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on the property. Our only other source for cash at this time is investment by others in our complete private placement. The cash we raised will allow us to stay in business for at least one year. Our success or failure will be determined by what we find under the ground.
To meet our need for cash we raised money from our private placement. If we find mineralized material and it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans. If we do not have enough money to complete our exploration of the property, we will have to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers or others.
Our officers and sole director are unwilling to make any commitment to loan us any money at this time. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash. If we need additional cash and can't raise it, we will either have to suspend activities until we do raise the cash, or cease activities entirely. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
We do not own any interest in any property, but merely have the right to conduct exploration activities on one property. Even if we complete our current exploration program and it is successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit, a reserve.
We will be conducting research in the form of exploration of the property. Our exploration program is explained in as much detail as possible in the business section of this prospectus. We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment during the next twelve months. We will not buy any equipment until have located a reserve and we have determined it is economical to extract the minerals from the land.
We do not intend to interest other companies in the property if we find mineralized materials. We intend to try to develop the reserves ourselves.
-25-
If we are unable to complete any phase of exploration because we don’t have enough money, we will cease activities until we raise more money. If we can’t or don’t raise more money, we will cease activities. If we cease activities, we don’t know what we will do and we don’t have any plans to do anything.
We do not intend to hire additional employees at this time. All of the work on the property will be conduct by unaffiliated independent contractors that we will hire. The independent contractors will be responsible for surveying, geology, engineering, exploration, and excavation. The geologists will evaluate the information derived from the exploration and excavation and the engineers will advise us on the economic feasibility of removing the mineralized material.
Milestones
The following are our milestones:
1. Retain our consultant to manage the exploration of the property. Detailed prospecting and mineralization mapping, followed by soil sampling and analyses. This phase may take up to two months to complete. The cost estimate for this activity, including retaining our consultant is estimated to be $7,500.00.
2. Next we intend we intend to conduct magnetometer and electromagnetic, grid controlled surveys over the areas of interest as determined by the soil sampling and analysis. This program is expected to take three months to complete. Included in this estimated cost are transportation, accommodation, board, grid installation, both of the geophysical surveys, maps and report. The cost is anticipated to be $7,500.00.
3. Finally, we intend to induced polarization survey over grid controlled anomalous areas of interest outlined by the above fieldwork. Core drilling to follow. We plan to drill 15 holes to a depth of 100 feet. The total cost will be $30,000. Core drilling will be subcontracted to non-affiliated third parties. No power source is needed for core drilling. The drilling rig operates on diesel fuel. All electric power needed, for light and heating while on the property will be generated from gasoline powered generators. We intend to have an independent third party analyze the samples from the core drilling. Determine if mineralized material is below the ground. If mineralized material is found, define the body. We estimate that it will cost $4,500 to analyze the core samples and will take 30 days. This program is estimated to take one month to complete and includes assays, detailed maps and reports. We have allocated $45,000.00 for this phase.
All funds for the foregoing activities have been obtained from our private placement.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an exploration stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from activities. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business activities. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.
To become profitable and competitive, we will conduct exploration of our properties before we start production of any minerals we may find.
We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our activities. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
Results of Activities
From Inception on November 8, 2006
We acquired the right to explore one property containing one claim. We do not own any interest in any property, but merely have the right to conduct exploration activities on one property. We have registered the property and will begin exploration in the fall of 2007, weather permitting.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of the date of this prospectus, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business activities.
We issued 5,000,000 restricted shares of common stock through a private placement pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 to Mr. Sidhu, one of our officers and our sole member of our board of directors in November 2006, in consideration of $50. We also sold 100,000 restricted shares of common stock to Mr. Dhami, our vice president in consideration of $5,000. The shares were sold to non-US persons and all transactions closed outside the United States of America. This was accounted for as a purchase of shares of common stock.
In June 2007, we completed a private placement of 1,600,000 restricted shares of common stock at a price of $0.05 per share, pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and raised $75,000. All of the shares were sold to non-US persons and all transactions closed outside the United States of America. This was accounted for as a purchase of shares of common stock.
As of June 30, 2007, our total assets were $75,065 and our total liabilities were $0.

Background of officers and directors
Gary Sidhu has been our president, principal executive officer, secretary, treasurer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and sole member of the board of directors since our inception on November 8, 2006. From January 2005 to November 2006, Mr. Sidhu was retired. From March 2003 to January 2005, Mr. Sidhu was a founder and director of Lions Petroleum Corp. located in Vancouver, British Columbia. Lions Petroleum is an oil and gas production stage company. Lions Petroleum is a privately owned corporation and has no outstanding securities that are traded anywhere. From January 2003 to March 2003, Mr. Sidhu was unemployed. From April 2002 to January 2003, Mr. Sidhu was vice president of North American General Resources Corp., a development stage mining company that was located in Vancouver, British Columbia. The Company, after Mr. Sidhu’s departure, went on to become Fortuna Gaming Co rp., an online gaming company. Fortuna Gaming Corp. is traded on the NASDAQ small caps system under the symbol “FGAM”. Other than Lions Petroleum Corp. and our board of directors, Mr. Sidhu has not been a member of the board of directors of any corporations during the last five years.
Since January 8, 2007, Karminder Dhami has been our vice president. Since August 1997, Mr. Dhami has been the president of Dhami Mechanical, a private British Columbia corporation which provides installation, maintenance and repair of heating and gas equipment in the greater Surrey and Vancouver, British Columbia geographical area. Other than our board of directors, Mr. Dhami has not been a member of the board of directors of any corporations during the last five years.
During the past five years, Messrs. Sidhu and Dhami have not been the subject of the following events:
1. Any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which Messrs. Sidhu and Dhami were a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time.

4. Found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Future Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are only beginning our commercial operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.
Conflicts of Interest
There are no conflicts of interest.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Directors and Stockholders
Everest Resources Corp.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Everest Resources Corp. (An Exploration Stage Company) as of June 30, 2007, and the related statement of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity from November 8, 2006 (Date of Inception) to June 30, 2007. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit provides 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 Everest Resources Corp. (An Exploration Stage Company) as of June 30, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from November 8, 2006 (Date of Inception) to June 30, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has not generated any revenues and has incurred operating losses since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Everest Resources Corp.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2007
(Expressed in US dollars)
1. | Nature of Operations |
|
| Everest Resources Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 8, 2006. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No.7 “Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises”. The Company’s principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. The Company has not presently determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. |
|
| These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has never generated revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at June 30, 2007, the Company has accumulated losses of $9,785 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset a mounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. |
|
| The Company is planning to file an SB-2 Registration Statement (“SB-2”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to issue 2,000,000 common shares at $0.05 per common share for total proceeds of $200,000. |
|
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
|
| a) | Basis of Presentation |
| | These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is June 30. |
|
| b) | Use of Estimates |
| | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to donated services and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may di ffer materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. |

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2007
(Expressed in US dollars)
2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
|
| c) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
| | The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. |
|
| d) | Financial Instruments |
| | The fair value of financial instruments, which includes cash, were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. |
|
| e) | Foreign Currency Translation |
| | The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation”, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. |
|
| f) | Comprehensive Loss |
| | SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at June 30, 2007, the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements. |
|
| g) | Mineral Property Costs |
| | The Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception on November 8, 2006 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets”. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. W hen it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations. |

2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
|
| h) | Long-lived Assets |
| | In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. |
|
| | Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. |
|
| i) | Income Taxes |
| | The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. |
|
| j) | Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share |
| | The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. |
|
| k) | Stock-based Compensation |
| | The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS 123(R) “Share Based Payments”,using the fair value method. The Company has not issued any stock options since its inception. |

|
| l) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
| | In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”.The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. |
|
| | In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)”. This statement requires employers to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limite d exceptions. The provisions of SFAS No. 158 are effective for employers with publicly traded equity securities as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations. |
|
| | In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fair value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations. |

3. | Mineral Property |

7. | Income Taxes |
|
| The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Income tax expense differs from the amount that would result from applying the U.S federal and state income tax rates to earnings before income taxes. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $4,985 available to offset taxable income in future years which expires beginning in fiscal 2027. Pursuant to SFAS 109, the potential benefit of the net operating loss carryforward has not been recognized in the financial statements since the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years. |

7. | Income Taxes (continued) |
|
| The Company is subject to United States federal and state income taxes at an approximate rate of 35%. The reconciliation of the provision for income taxes at the United States federal statutory rate compared to the Company’s income tax expense as reported is as follows: |
|
| June 30, | |
| 2007 | |
| $ | |
Income tax recovery at statutory rate | (3,425 | ) |
Permanent differences – donated expenses | 1,680 | |
Temporary differences | – | |
Valuation allowance change | 1,745 | |
Provision for income taxes | – | |
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences in the recognition of income and expenses for financial reporting and tax purposes. The significant components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities at June 30, 2007, are as follows:
| June 30, | |
| 2007 | |
| $ | |
Net operating loss carryforward | 1,745 | |
Valuation allowance | (1,745 | ) |
Net deferred income tax asset | – | |
| The Company has recognized a valuation allowance for the deferred income tax asset since the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years. The valuation allowance is reviewed annually. When circumstances change and which cause a change in management's judgment about the realizability of deferred income tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is generally reflected in current income. |

8. | Subsequent Event |
|
| On August 28, 2007, the Company issued the 1,600,000 common shares from the private placement, as disclosed in Note 6(b). |

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
We hereby undertake:
(1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
|
| (i) | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
|
| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and |
|
| (iii) | To include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. |
|
(2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post- effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
(3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
|
(4) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |

(5) | For determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933: |
|
| (i) | we shall treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by us under Rule 424(b)(1), or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective. For determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, we shall treat each post- effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities. |
|
| (ii) | we shall treat each prospectus filed by us pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) as part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement. Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or |
|
| (iii) | we shall treat each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made i n any such document immediately prior to such date of first use. |
