RISK FACTORS
Please consider the following risk factors before deciding to invest in our common stock. Risks associated with Destiny Minerals Inc.:
1.If we do not raise at least the minimum amount of this offering, we will have to suspend or cease operations.
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. If we do not raise at least the minimum amount from our offering, we will have to suspend or cease operations within twelve months.
2.Our plan of operation is limited to finding an ore body. As such we have no plans for revenue generation. Accordingly, you should not expect any revenues from operations.
Our plan of operation and the funds we raise from this offering will be used for exploration of the property to determine if there is an ore body beneath the surface. Exploration does not contemplate removal of the ore. We have no plans or funds for ore removal. Accordingly, we will not generate any revenues as a result of your investment.
3.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. Consequently, any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost which result in a loss of your investment.
-4-
4.We lack an operating history and have a loss which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease operations.
We were incorporated on February 12, 2008, and we have started limited exploration operations and have not 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 $22,025. To achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow we are dependent upon:
* | our ability to locate a profitable mineral property |
|
* | our ability to economically extract the minerals |
|
* | our ability to generate revenues and ultimately become profitable. |
|
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods. This will happen because there are expenses associated with the 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 operations.
5.Because all of our assets, our sole officer and director is 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 directors.
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 sole officer and director is a national and/or resident of a country other than the United States, and all of his assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for an investor to effect service of process or enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our sole officer or 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 directors predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities 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 directors predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.
6.Because we are small and do not 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. Consequently, an existing ore body may go undiscovered. Without an ore body, we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.
7.Weather interruptions in the province of Quebec may affect and delay our proposed exploration operations and as a result, there may be delays in generating revenues.
Our proposed exploration work can only be performed approximately five to six months out of the year. This is because rain and snow cause the roads leading to our claims to be impassible during six to seven months of the year. When roads are impassible, we are unable to conduct exploration operations on the property which will delay the generation of possible revenues by us.
-5-
8.Because our sole officer and director has other outside business activities and he will only be devoting 10% of his time or approximately four hours per week to our activities, our activities may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of exploration.
Because our sole officer and director has other outside business activities and will only be devoting 10% of his time or four hours each per week to our activities, our activities may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to him. As a result, exploration of the property may be periodically interrupted or suspended.
Risks associated with this offering:
9.Because there is no escrow, trust or similar account, your subscription could be seized by creditors or by a trustee in bankruptcy. If that occurs, you will lose your investment.
There is no escrow, trust or similar account in which your subscription will be deposited. It will only be deposited in a separate bank account under our name. You will only receive your funds back if we do not raise the minimum amount of the offering within 270 days. As a result, if we are sued for any reason and a judgment is rendered against us, your subscription could be seized in a garnishment proceeding. If we file a voluntary bankruptcy petition or our creditors file an involuntary bankruptcy petition, our assets will be seized by the bankruptcy trustee, including your subscription, and used to pay our creditors. If that happens, you will lose your investment, even if we fail to raise the minimum amount in this offering.
10.Because our sole officer and director is risking a small amount of capital and property, while you, on the other hand, are risking up to $100,000, if we fail, you will absorb most of our loss.
Our sole officer and director will receive a substantial benefit from your investment. Our president, Mr. Petro, paid for the mineral property, paid expenses and made a loan to us, all of which totaled $22,025. You, on the other hand, will be providing all of the cash for our operations. As a result, if we cease operations for any reason, you will lose your investment while our officer and director, Mr. Petro will lose only $22,025.
11.Because there is no public trading market for our common stock, you may not be able to resell your stock, and as a result, your investment is illiquid.
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 want to resell your shares, you will have to locate a buyer and negotiate your own sale. Your investment is illiquid and there is no assurance that you will be able to resell your shares.
12.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 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.
-6-
13.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 our securities including the delivery of a standardized disclosure document; disclosure and confirmation of quotation prices; disclosure of compensation the broker-dealer receives; and, furnishing of 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 these additional sales practices could adversely affect your ability to dispose of our stock.

Exploration expenditures consist of fees to for consulting services, the cost of trenching, sampling, and cost of analyzing core samples. We are not going to spend any money or implement our exploration program until this offering is completed. We have not begun exploration. Consulting fees will not be more than $5,000 per month. Our consultant, in consultation with our officers, will supervise and contract for our exploration operations through independent contractors. Sampling, mapping, analysis of the samples will be used to determine the next step in the exploration program. We estimate it will cost between $23,000 and $73,000 for the foregoing.
-7-
Assuming the maximum number of shares are sold, we have allocated funds for telephone service, mail, stationary, accounting, acquisition of office equipment and supplies, and the salary of one secretary, assuming the maximum number of shares are sold, if needed.
We have allocated a large sum of money for exploration because we do not know how much will ultimately be needed. If we discover significant quantities of mineral, we will begin technical and economic feasibility studies to determine if we have reserves. Only if we determine we have reserves will we consider developing the property.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The price of the shares we are offering was arbitrarily determined in order for us to raise up to a total of $100,000 in this offering. The offering price bears no relationship whatsoever to our assets, earnings, book value or other criteria of value. Among the factors considered were:
* | our lack of operating history |
|
* | the proceeds to be raised by the offering |
|
* | the amount of capital to be contributed by purchasers in this offering in proportion to our existing shareholders |
|
* | the amount of stock to be retained by our existing Stockholders, and |
|
* | our relative cash requirements. |
|
DILUTION OF THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR YOUR SHARES
Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. Net tangible book value is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly as a result of our arbitrary determination of the offering price of the shares being offered. Dilution of the value of the shares you purchase is also a result of the lower book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders.
As of March 31, 2008, the net tangible book value of our shares of common stock was a deficit of $(21,975) or approximately $(0.0044) per share based upon 5,000,000 shares outstanding.
If 5,000,000 Shares Are Sold:
Upon completion of this offering, in the event all of the shares are sold, the net tangible book value of the 10,000,000 shares to be outstanding will be $48,025 or approximately $0.0048 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will be increased by $0.0044 per share without any additional investment on their part. You will incur an immediate dilution from $0.02 per share to $0.0048 per share.
After completion of this offering, if 5,000,000 shares are sold, you will own approximately 50.00% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which you will have made a cash investment of $100,000, or $0.02 per share. Our existing stockholders will own approximately 50.00% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have made contributions of cash totaling $50 or $0.00001 per share.

If 4,000,000 Shares Are Sold:
Upon completion of this offering, in the event 4,000,000 shares are sold, the net tangible book value of the 9,000,000 shares to be outstanding will be $28,025, or approximately $0.0031 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will be increased by $0.0044 per share without any additional investment on their part. You will incur an immediate dilution from $0.02 per share to $0.0031 per share.
After completion of this offering, if 4,000,000 shares are sold, you will own approximately 44.44% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which you will have made a cash investment of $80,000, or $0.02 per share. Our existing stockholders will own approximately 55.56% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have made contributions of cash totaling $50 or $0.00001 per share.
If 3,000,000 Shares Are Sold:
Upon completion of this offering, in the event 3,000,000 shares are sold, the net tangible book value of the 8,000,000 shares to be outstanding will be $8,025, or approximately $0.0010 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will be increased by $0.0044 per share without any additional investment on their part. You will incur an immediate dilution from $0.02 per share to $0.0010 per share.
After completion of this offering, if 3,000,000 shares are sold, you will own approximately 37.50% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which you will have made a cash investment of $60,000, or $0.02 per share. Our existing stockholders will own approximately 62.50% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have made contributions of cash totaling $50 or $0.00001 per share.

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 Rule 15g-9 promulgated thereunder.

While Section 15(g) and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6 apply to broker-dealers, they do not apply to us.

Plan of Operation
We are a start-up, exploration stage corporation and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.
Our auditor has 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. There is no assurance we will ever reach this point. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on the property. That cash must be raised from other sources. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by other. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business. If we raise the minimum amount of money in this offering, we believe it will last twelve months.
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.
Access is provided by several trails, tertiary and secondary roads near the property.
Our exploration target is to find an ore body containing gold. Our success depends upon finding mineralized material. This includes a determination by our consultant if the property contains reserves. 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 don’t find mineralized material or we can’t 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 operations and you will lose your investment.
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. In we need additional money and can’t raise it, we will have to suspend or cease operations.
We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our property and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.
The property is undeveloped raw land. Limited exploration in the form of obtaining surface samples, has been conducted. Further exploration will occur when 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 operations. To our knowledge, the property has never been mined. The only event that has occurred is the recording of the property by David Zamida and a physical examination of the property by Emad Petro, our sole officer and director. The registration of the claims was included in the $5,000 paid to Mr. Zamida. No additional payments were made or are due to Mr. Zamida for his services, with the exception of a 1% smelter royalty. The claims were recorded in our name. Before mineral retrieval
-14-
can begin, we must explore for and find 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. 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 can’t predict what that will be until we find mineralized material.
We do not know if we will find mineralized material. We believe that activities occurring on adjoining properties are not material to our activities. The reason is that what ever is located under adjoining property may or may not be located under our property.
We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any of our property.
We intend to implement an exploration program which consists of:
| 1. | compilation of information about the property and property visit, |
| |
| 2. | mapping and sampling, |
| |
| 3. | preparation of technical report, |
| |
| 4. | soil geochemistry and detailed mapping, and |
| |
| 5. | core drilling. |
| |
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 through the use of consultant. We have no plans to interest other companies in the property if we do not find mineralized material. To pay the consultant and develop the reserves, we will have to raise additional funds through a second public offering, a private placement or through loans. As of the date of this prospectus, we have no plans to raise additional funds other than the funds being raised in this public offering. Further, there is no assurance we will be able to raise any additional funds even if we discover mineralized material and a have a defined ore body.
If we are unable to complete any phase of exploration because we don’t have enough money, we will cease operations until we raise more money. If we can’t or don’t raise more money, we will cease operations. If we cease operations, we don’t know what we will do and we don’t have any plans to do anything.
We don’t 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.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There is limited 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 operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. 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 conduct research and exploration of our property before we start production of any minerals we may find. We are seeking equity financing to provide for the capital required to implement our research and exploration phases. We believe that the funds raised from this offering, whether it be the minimum amount or the maximum amount, will allow us to operate for one year.
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 operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
To meet our need for cash we are attempting to raise money from this offering. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to raise enough money through this offering to stay in business. Whatever money we do raise, will be applied to the items set forth in the Use of Proceeds section of this prospectus. 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 raise all of the money we need from this offering 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 officer or others.
Our sole officer and director has agreed to advance funds as needed until the public offering is completed or failed and has agreed to pay the cost of reclamation of the property should mineralized material not be found thereon. The foregoing agreement is oral, there is nothing in writing to evidence the same. While our sole officer and director has agreed to advance the funds, the agreement is unenforceable as a matter of law, since there is no consideration for the same. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through this offering. If we need additional cash and can’t raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. Whether we raise the minimum amount or maximum amount, it will last a year. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
-16-
We have the right to explore one property containing nine claims. We will begin our exploration plan upon completion of this offering. We expect to start exploration operations, weather permitting, within 90 days of completing this offering. As of the date of this prospectus, we have started limited operations, but have yet to generate any revenues.
Since inception, we have issued 5,000,000 shares of our common stock and received $50.
We issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to our sole officer and director pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1993. The purchase price of the shares was $50. This was accounted for as an acquisition of shares. Mr. Petro covered our initial expenses of $22,025 including incorporation, accounting and legal fees and for registering the property, all of which was paid directly to David Zamida, Geologica Groupe Conseil, our geological consultants; our attorney; and, our accountant. The amount owed to Mr. Petro is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. Further the agreement with Mr. Petro is oral and there is no written document evidencing the agreement.
As of March 31, 2008, our total assets were $50 and our total liabilities were $22,025 for a working capital deficit of $(21,975).

BUSINESS
General
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 12, 2008. We are an exploration stage corporation. An exploration stage corporation is one engaged in the search from mineral deposits or reserves which are not in either the development or production stage. We intend to conduct exploration activities on one property. We maintain our statutory registered agent’s office at National Registered Agents Inc. of NV, located at 1000 East William Street, Suite 204, Carson City, Nevada 89701. Our business office is located at 246 Horsham Avenue, North York, Ontario, Canada M2N 2A6. Our telephone number is (888) 512-9124. This is Mr. Petro’s home. We use this space on a rent free basis.
There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on the property and further exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic feasibility is determined.
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 our plans to change.
Background
In March 2008, we acquired one mineral property containing nine mineral claims located in the province of Quebec, Canada. Quebec allows a mineral explorer to claim a portion of available Crown lands as its exclusive area for exploration by map designation or by staking. Quebec’s mining system promotes the development of mineral resources, while taking other possible uses of the territory into consideration. It is based on the “free mining” principle, which allows the broadest possible access to the territory, regardless of means, on a first come, first serve basis, and where the title obtained includes the exclusive right to search for mineral substances and the assurance of being able to obtain, under certain conditions, the right to mine the mineral substance discovered. The property was recorded by David Zamida, Geologica Groupe Conseil. Mr. Zamida transferred the property to us in conside ration of $5,000 and a 1% net smelter royalty. Mr. Zamida is a non-affiliate third party.
A net smelter royalty is a fee paid to a landowner or claimholder that is a percentage of a minerals’ value at time of sale. This type of royalty is free of all development, operating and environmental liability costs. Accordingly for every $1 of mineralized material sold, Mr. Zamida will receive $0.01. There is no assurance, however, we will ever discover mineralized material, develop the property and ever sell any mineralized material to anyone.
We have no revenues, have a loss since inception, have minimal operations, have been issued a going concern opinion and rely upon the sale of our securities and loans from our sole officer and director to fund operations.
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.
-18-
In the 19thcentury 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. The property is one such acquisition. Accordingly, fee simple title to the property resides with the Crown.
Claims may be recorded in the names of individuals or corporations. Prospecting licenses, however, may only be issued in the name of individuals. Our claims are recorded in our name and Emad Petro, our president holds the prospecting license. We have the exclusive rights to mine and recover all of the minerals contained within the surface boundaries of the lease vertically downward of our property. The Crown could reclaim the property in an eminent domain proceeding, but would have to compensate the lessee for the value of the claim if it exercised the right of eminent domain. It is highly unlikely that the Crown will exercise the power of eminent domain. In general, where eminent domain has been exercised it has been in connection with incorporating the property into a provincial park.
The property is unencumbered and there are no competitive conditions which 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. We are presently in the exploration stage and we cannot guarantee that a commercially viable mineral deposit, a reserve, exists in the property until further exploration is done and a comprehensive evaluation concludes economic and legal feasibility.
There are no native land claims that affect title to the property. We have no plans to try interest other companies in the property if mineralization is found. If mineralization is found, we will try to develop the property ourselves.

Location and Access
The Valrennes property is located in the north part of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, approximately 80 kilometres southwest of the town of Matagami in the Abitibi region in Quebec, Canada. The property is easily accessible by several trails, tertiary and secondary roads near the property.
The property consists of 9 claims respectively located in Valrennes Township covering a surface area of 503.79 hectares. We own 100% interest of the mineral rights, subject to a 1% smelter royalty. There are no native land claims that affect the title to the property. The property was selected due to the presence of silver, gold and copper in the area.
The property is easily accessible by several trails, tertiary and secondary roads near the property.
Physiography
The topography is of low relief, which rarely exceeds 100 meters, locally swampy, while spruce forest and mixed birch deciduous, and coniferous forest (tamarack spruce, jackpine) cover the area. The local climate is that of the Canadian Shield at this latitude, that is to say typically continental, with hard winters extending from October to April, snow which can reach several meters and of total precipitation of 80 centimeters per year. The summers are relatively hot and fairly wet. Qualified manpower and infrastructure are available in the area.
History
There is evidence of previous exploration activity on the property.
Property Geology
The local geology consists of hornoclinal basaltic flows with interflows of cherts, minor felsic volcanics and altered mineralized rhyolites.
Supplies
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 locates 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.
Other Property
Other than our interest in the property, we own no plants or other property.

Our Proposed Exploration Program
Working with a budget of between $30,000 and $70,000, we plan on doing trenching work with a back-hoe to expose bedrock. Metal detecting, soil and rock chip sampling, and geological mapping will be done once the bedrock is exposed. The object of this work will be to determine if there is a possibility that there is an economically recoverable gold resource on this property. All sample locations will be marked and mapped. The initial phase of work will provide enough information to allow us to decide whether or not to proceed to the next phase of exploration.
It will take us two to three weeks to complete the trenching and collect the samples. Samples will be shipped to certified assayers located in Montreal, Canada. It will take another two to three weeks to obtain results from the lab. We will plot all sample locations on enlarged topographical maps and provide GPS with these locations.
Funds will be used exclusively for trenching, grid installation, metal detection, sample collecting, supplies, shipping, lab costs, meals, motels, truck fuel and labor.
We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.
The property is undeveloped raw land. Exploration and surveying has not been initiated and will not be completed until we raise additional money. That is because we do not have money to complete exploration.
Before minerals 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 can't predict what that will be until we find mineralized material.
We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any of the property.
The property is undeveloped raw land. 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 operations. To our knowledge, the property has never been mined. The only event that has occurred is the staking of the property by Mr. Zamida, a non-affiliate third party, and an examination of the property by Mr. Petro, our president. We paid Mr. Zamida $5,000 for the claim.
We do not know if we will find mineralized material. We believe that activities occurring on adjoining properties are not material to our activities. The reason is that what ever is located under adjoining property may or may not be located under the property.
-23-
We intend to implement an exploration program which consists of:
| 1. | compilation of information about the property and property visit, |
| |
| 2. | mapping and sampling, |
| |
| 3. | preparation of technical report, |
| |
| 4. | soil geochemistry and detailed mapping, and, |
| |
| 5. | core drilling. |
| |
The breakdowns were made in consultation with Geologica Groupe Conseil whom we intend to retain for our exploration program. We will have the funds to complete items 1-3.
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 through the use of consultant. We have no plans to interest other companies in the property if we do not find mineralized material.
If we are unable to complete exploration because we don’t have enough money, we will cease operations until we raise more money. If we can’t or don’t raise more money, we will cease operations. If we cease operations, 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.
Our exploration program will not result in the generation of revenue. It is designed only to determine if mineralized material is located on the property. Revenue will only be generated if we discover mineralized material and extract the minerals and sell them. Because we have not found mineralized material yet, it is impossible to project revenue generation.
We anticipate starting exploration activity ninety days after this public offering is completed, weather permitting.
Competitive Factors
The gold mining industry is fragmented, that is there are many gold prospectors and producers, small and large. We do not compete with anyone. That is because there is no competition for the exploration or removal of minerals from the property. We will either find gold on the property or not. If we do not, we will cease or suspend operations. We are one of the smallest exploration companies in existence. We are an infinitely small participant in the gold mining market. 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 Quebec’s Mining Act. This act sets forth rules for
* | locating claims |
|
* | posting claims |
|
* | working claims |
|
* | reporting work performed |
-24-
Environmental Law
Policies and procedures for exploration and development are informal in Quebec. These policies and procedures are not mandated by statute. Instead they are outlined in guidelines. As a claim holder, however, we cannot erect or maintain construction on the property without obtaining permission from the Ministere des Ressources naturelles e de la Faune unless such a construction is specifically allowed for by ministerial order as published in theGarette officielle du Quebec. An application is not necessary for temporary shelters that are made of pliable material over rigid supports that can be dismantled and transported.
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 mining operations. 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 operations 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 operations 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 Quebec is returning the surface to its previous condition upon abandonment of the property. We believe the cost of reclaiming the property will be $750 to $2,250. We have not allocated any funds for the reclamation of the property and the proceeds for the cost of reclamation will not be paid from the proceeds of the offering. Mr. Petro has agreed to pay the cost of reclaiming the property should mineralized material not be discovered.
Employees
We intend to use the services of subcontractors for manual labor exploration work on our property.
Employees and Employment Agreements
At present, we have no full-time employees. Our sole officer and director is a part-time employee and will devote about 10% of his time or four hours per week to our operation. Mr. Petro does not have an employment agreement 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 sole officer and director. Mr. Petro will handle our administrative duties. We intend to subcontract all work out to third parties. As of today, we have not looked for or talked to any geologists or engineers who will perform work for us in the future with the exception of Geologica Groupe Conseil. We do not intend to do so until we complete this offering.

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 have limited operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.
Conflicts of Interest
The only conflict that we foresee is that our sole officer and director will devote time to projects that do not involve us.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The following table sets forth the compensation paid by us for the last three fiscal years ending March 31, 2008 for our sole officer. This information includes the dollar value of base salaries, bonus awards and number of stock options granted, and certain other compensation, if any.

Indemnification
Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of her/his position, if she/he acted in good faith and in a manner she/he reasonably believed to be in our best interest.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Board of Directors
Destiny Minerals, Inc.
Ontario, Canada
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Destiny Minerals Inc., (“Destiny”) as of March 31, 2008 and related statements of expenses, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the period from February 12, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of Destiny’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with 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 misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit 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 signif icant 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 Destiny as of March 31, 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from February 12, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Destiny will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, Destiny has a working capital deficiency, has not generated revenues and has accumulated losses since inception, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DESTINY MINERALS INC.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business.Destiny Minerals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on February 12, 2008 and its principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.
Use of Estimates.The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Acquisition, Exploration and Development Costs.Mineral property acquisition, exploration and related costs are expensed as incurred unless proven and probable reserves exist and the property may commercially be mined. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed, the costs incurred to develop such property, including costs to further delineate the ore body and develop the property for production, may be capitalized. In addition, the Company may capitalize previously expensed acquisition and exploration costs if it is later determined that the property can economically be developed. Interest costs, if any, allocable to the cost of developing mining properties and to constructing new facilities are capitalized until operations commence. Mine development costs incurred either to develop new ore deposits, expan d the capacity of operating mines, or to develop mine areas substantially in advance of current production are also capitalized. All such capitalized costs, and estimated future development costs, are then amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the ore body. Costs incurred to maintain current production or to maintain assets on a standby basis are charged to operations. Costs of abandoned projects are charged to operations upon abandonment. The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, the carrying value of capitalized mining costs and related property, plant and equipment costs, if any, to determine if these costs are in excess of their net realizable value and if a permanent impairment needs to be recorded. The periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related property, plant and equipment costs are based upon expected future cash flows and/or estimated salvage value in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Acco unting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."
Earnings Per Share.The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the period ended March 31, 2008, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
Revenue recognition.Destiny recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. This typically occurs when the product is shipped. For the period ended March 31, 2008, Destiny Minerals had no revenues.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Cash and Cash Equivalents.For purposes of the statement of cash flows, Destiny Minerals considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes.Destiny recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Destiny provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements.Destiny Minerals does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
Note 2. Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies Destiny will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Destiny be unable to continue as a going concern. As at March 31, 2008, Destiny has a working capital deficiency, has not generated revenues and has accumulated losses of $22,025 since inception. The continuation of Destiny as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of Destiny Minerals to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. These factors raise substantial do ubt regarding Destiny’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Note 3. Related Party Transactions
On March 31, 2008, Destiny owed its president and sole director $22,025 for advances made to Destiny. The total amount is unsecured, non interest bearing, and has no specific terms for repayment.
Note 4. Common Stock
On February 12, 2008, Destiny issued 5,000,000 common shares to its president and sole director at $0.00001 per share for $50.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 5. Income Taxes
Destiny uses the liability method, where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes. Since inception, Destiny incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $22,000 at March 31, 2008, and will expire in the year 2028.
At March 31, 2008, deferred tax assets consisted of the following: | | | |
|
Deferred tax assets | $ | 7,489 | |
Less: valuation allowance | | (7,489 | ) |
Net deferred tax asset | $ | - | |
Note 6. Mineral Properties
We currently hold 100% interest in the Valrennes property. We purchased the nine claims comprising the Valrennes from an individual who serves as our consultant in Quebec. We own mining concessions for the property, which are subject to a 1% net smelter return on any production to this consultant. We paid the consultant $5,000 for the property and no royalties are due at this time. The property is in the exploration stage and has no proven or probable reserves.
